A mutation reduces the number of cristae in mitochondria from a population of cells. Which explanation best predicts the effect on ATP synthesis?
A
Reduced cristae increase glycolysis because glucose is split inside cristae.
B
Reduced inner membrane surface area limits electron transport complexes and ATP synthase, lowering oxidative phosphorylation capacity.
C
Reduced cristae make oxygen unnecessary as a final electron acceptor.
D
Reduced cristae increase ATP yield by shortening the citric acid cycle.
