Question

Question 36 0 out of 2 points. The organized layers of folds that characterize cristae greatly increase the total surface area of the inner membrane of mitochondria. The larger surface area means that there is more space for the series of compounds that make up the electron transport system to carry out the process of releasing food particles in the cell to generate energy. These features of cristae allow for a faster production of ATP in the inner membrane of the mitochondria during the final stages of cellular respiration Which is not a feature or function of mitochondrial cristae? They increase surface area for the ETC They trap protons in the IM space from diffusing out of outer membrane

Explanation / Answer

Question 36:
The answer is They trap protons in the IM space from diffusing out of outer membrane.

Because the cristae increases the surface area for ETC, which helps to facilitate or accomidate more numbers of ETC complexes.
