Question

write b/w cristae and cisterae ​

Answer 1

Answer:

Cisternae are the flattened structures making up Golgi apparatus. Cisterna is also the lumen of rough endoplasmic reticulum. Whereas cristae are the foldings of inner mitochondrial membrane enclosing mitochondrial matrix.

Answer 2

Explanation:

The main difference between cristae and cisternae is that cristae are the foldings of the inner mitochondrial membrane, enclosing mitochondrial matrix, whereas cisternae are the flattened structures, which make up Golgi apparatus and the endoplasmic reticulum. Cristae give a signature wrinkled shape to the inner membrane of the mitochondria while Golgi apparatus contains around 3-20 cisternae. Further, cristae contain proteins, including ATP synthase and a range of cytochromes, while cisternae contain different types of enzymes inside them.
