In liver cells, the inner mitochondrial membranes are about five times the area of the outer mitochondrial membranes. what purpose must this serve? a) it allows for an increased rate of glycolysis.
b) it allows for an increased rate of the citric acid cycle.
c) it increases the surface for oxidative phosphorylation.
d) it increases the surface for substrate-level phosphorylation.

The correct answer is option C.

Explanation:

The inner membrane of the mitochondria in liver cells is about five times of that the outer membrane as it helps the expanding the surface area of the inner membrane including cristae which is compartment like structure in the inner membrane.

The expand in the surface area in the inner membrane that helps in enhancing its ability to produce ATP than normal. It increases the surface area for oxidative phosphorylation.

Thus, the correct answer is option C.

[ answer ]

foliated

[ explanation ]

foliation forms in a rock when pressure squeezes the rock together. the rock then has a design of many different color little lines. there are three types of foliated rock. the types are slate, schist, and gneiss. each type of foliated rock is different based on grain size and foliation characteristics. the lines appear when the rock has been under pressure.
