Question

what are cristae and oxysomes associated with?

Answer 1

Cristae and oxysomes:

1. The cristae in mitochondria increase the surface area and contain oxysomes on the membrane.
   

2. The oxysomes are also known as F0-F1 particles or ATP synthase.

3. Mitochondria are the sites of aerobic respiration as oxysomes take part in ATP synthesis through oxidative phosphorylation.

4. Cristae increase the surface area for ATP synthesis inside the mitochondria.
