The inner membrane of the mitochondria has infoldings called cristae. What is the primary function of these cristae?
1. They contain enzymes for the citric acid cycle.
2. They provide a large surface area for ATP production.
3. They house the genetic material (mitochondrial DNA).
4. They regulate the passage of molecules into and out of the mitochondria.
