28 views4 pages

Document Summary

Usually depicted as oval, double membraned organelles, mitochondria undergo rounds of fusion and ssion and their shape can change to be considered tubular: fusion and ssion are intimately associated with the. Structure and function: have their own dna -> can make their own protein, dna evidence its in form of nucleiod as in imm but not bound to the membrane. Inter-membrane space: high [protein], gel like consistency, mitochondrial ribosomes, mitochondria dna (mtdna, encodes polypeptides (formed by mitochondrial dna) that are integrated into the imm, ribosomes trna. Provides cells with atp (36) from glucose: glycolysis: occurs in cytoplasm outside mitochondria, pyruvic acid oxidation: occurs entirely in mitochondrial matrix, tca/krebs cycle: occurs mainly in matrix, ends in imm. Chemiosmosis: chemicals involved and process is similar to osmosis. Moves from area of [low] to [high: step 1, electron transport and proton pump generates an electrochemical gradient, step 2, proton movement down electrochemical gradient powers atp synthesis.
