What is matrix in mitochondria |
| Answer» A mitochondrion is formed of different parts and the matrix is one of them; it is enclosed inside the inner membrane of mitochondrion. The matrix of mitochondrion contains mainly soluble enzymes. The other components of this matrix are ribosomes and DNA. The contents of mitochondrial matrix are viscous in nature. This is unlike the cell cytoplasm that incorporates contents in a liquid state. Out of the total protein content of mitochondrion, 60-70% is present in the matrix. | |
