Mitochondria are often referred to as the “powerhouse” of the cell because they are the location where ATP is synthesized. The structure of a mitochondrion is unique because they have a double membrane. What about the double membrane allows a mitochondrion to be extremely efficient in the process of synthesizing ATP?
The oval shape of the outer membrane allows for fewer CO 2 molecules to exit.
The oval shape of the outer membrane allows for more passive transport of glucose molecules.
The highly folded inner membrane allows for more surface area for cellular respiration to occur.
The highly folded inner membrane allows for fewer enzymes to be found in the matrix, thus inhibiting cellular respiration.
