What are mitochondria surrounded by?
Mitochondria are surrounded by a double membrane - the outer mitochondrial membrane and the inner mitochondrial membrane. The space between these two membranes is called the intermembrane space.
What encloses the mitochondria?
The outer membrane encloses the mitochondria, acting as a barrier between the mitochondria and the rest of the cell. Additionally, the inner membrane inside the outer membrane further compartmentalizes and encloses the matrix where cellular respiration takes place.
What are factw about mitochondria and chloroplasts constitution support for the endosymbiont theorym?
There are three characteristics of mitochondria and chloroplasts that support this theory. First, both mitochondria and chloroplasts have two membranes surrounding them. Second, like prokaryotes, mitochondria and chloroplasts contain ribosomes, as well as a circular DNA molecules attached to their inner membranes. Third, mitochondria and chloroplasts are autonomous.
What is the part of mitochondria that contains the electron transport chain?
It take place on inner membrane. It has two membranes
How many membranes do mitochondira have?
Mitochondria have two membranes: an outer membrane and an inner membrane. The double-membrane structure helps compartmentalize different functions within the mitochondria, allowing for efficient energy production through processes like oxidative phosphorylation.
