Mitochondria Electron Micrograph
This high magnification image shows two mitochondria within the cytoplasm of a cell, a single cell may contain several 100 mitochondrion. These organelles are the physical location where cell respiration occurs,
Each mitochondrion has the same structure:
- an outer double membrane
- an inter-membranous space
- the inner membrane folded into extensions called cristae
- an internal space called the matrix
