In mitochondria, cristae act as sites for
Correct answer: D. Oxidation-reduction reactions.
- A. Protein synthesis
- B. Phosphorylation of flavoproteins
- C. Breakdown of macromolecules
- D. Oxidation-reduction reactions.
Explanation
Respiratory chain is located in the inner membrane (cristae) of mitochondria. It consists of a series of proteins containing oxidationreduction groups. Chemical treatment of the mitochondrial membrane results in the isolation of five complexes which have been designated as complexes I, II, III, IV, and V.

About Cell Structure and Function
Animal, plant, prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells are compared through their membranes, cell walls, nuclei and cytoplasmic organelles. The work includes the structures and functions of mitochondria, chloroplasts, ribosomes, endoplasmic reticulum, Golgi apparatus and lysosomes, as well as chromosome organization and the distinction between chromatin and chromosomes.
