Chapter 6.5, Problem 2CC
Summary Introduction
To explain: Plant cells have mitochondria.
Concept introduction: Mitochondria are found in every eukaryotic cell. The mitochondria are a double membrane boundedby organelles. It has two membranes: the outer membrane and inner membrane. The inner membrane in mitochondria is convoluted with a folding inside called the cristae. Cristae have huge surface with fixed enzymes to carry out reactions.

- What does the presence of many mitochondria imply about a cell’s energy requirements?arrow_forwardAlthough both organelles originated as free-living prokaryotes, mitochondria are significantly smaller than chloroplasts. Suggest a reason for this discrepancy.arrow_forwardMitochondria and chloroplast have their own DNA and replicate separately from the nucleus and they can synthesize ATP. Can they survive outside of the cell? Explain. Gracias!arrow_forward
- Why is the inner membrane of the mitochondria folded? increases volume increases surface area increases area increases diameterarrow_forwardWhat is mitochondria and give its suitable examples?arrow_forwardIllustrate the relationships among the membranes and compartments of (a) mitochondria and (b) chloroplasts by sketching simple concentric circles to represent the membranes. Choose the appropriate labels for each sketchfrom the following list: inner membrane, outer membrane, thylakoid membrane, stroma, thylakoid lumen, matrix.arrow_forward
