  • Mitochondria: Structure and Membrane Organization - A Comprehensive Guide
    Yes, the mitochondrion is surrounded by two membranes:

    * Outer membrane: This is a smooth membrane that encloses the entire organelle.

    * Inner membrane: This membrane is folded into cristae, which increase the surface area for ATP production.

    The space between these two membranes is called the intermembrane space, while the space enclosed by the inner membrane is called the matrix.
