Chapter 4.2, Problem 1NP
Summary Introduction
Introduction:
Mitochondria are the powerhouse of the cell which provides energy for all the cellular activities. Mitochondria are bounded by two membranes: the inner and outer membrane. Space between the two membranes is called the intermembrane compartment and space is filled with fluid is called the mitochondrial matrix.
