Chapter 11, Problem 12P
Interpretation Introduction

(a) Interpretation:

Calculation of the number of citrate synthase enzyme molecules contained in a single mitochondrion, assuming the mitochondrial citrate synthase concentrations is 1 μm.

Concept introduction:

The mitochondria are the cellular organelles that provide the cellular energy in the form of ATP (adenosine triphosphate). There are many mitochondria in each cell. This number of mitochondria provides a large amount of energy to the muscle cell for contraction and relaxation.

Interpretation Introduction

(b) Interpretation:

Determination of the genuineness ofthe number of citrate synthase in one mitochondrion when the diameter of one citrate synthase is 10 nm.

Concept introduction:

The mitochondria are the cellular organelles that provide the cellular energy in the form of ATP (adenosine triphosphate). There are many mitochondria in each cell. This number of mitochondria provides a large amount of energy to the muscle cell for contraction and relaxation.
