  • Mitochondria Structure: Exploring the Outer and Inner Membranes
    The two main parts of a mitochondrion are:

    1. Outer membrane: This smooth, outer layer encloses the entire organelle.

    2. Inner membrane: This folded membrane lies inside the outer membrane. The folds are called cristae, and they significantly increase the surface area of the inner membrane.

    Let me know if you'd like to know more about each part!
