The total surface area of mitochondria in your cells is equivalent to about 14,000 meters^2 or 4 football fields…🤯

No wonder it’s called the power house of the cell

Totally a wild fact, agreed! They even have their own genome separate from ours for the exact same reason that Wall Street traders want their servers as close to the trading floor as possible

the craziest thing I ever learned about mitochondria is that they were simply bacteria once 🫢

Let’s say your house is 2000 square feet on the outside. If I go inside and sum up the surface area of all the things inside it, it will be a number greater than 2000 square feet. Another example would be water filtration, the surface area required to capture all the contaminants mechanically is much greater than the exterior dimensions of the filtration housing, so too with your internal energy system

I never get how they get these huge numbers for something so small

I’m still trying to wrap my head around the fact that the power comes from proton gradients perpetuated by harnessing the the electrons ability to quantum tunnel its way across the interior of the cell

truly mindblowing woah 🤯 

its crazy to think that so much power is packed into such a small space

devin have you ever wondered what other hidden capacities our cells are holding?

Internal surface area is much larger than external surface area in a lot of things, we just don’t often need to consider it so intimately

But I’m not as big as a foot ball field how do the mitochondria in my equivalent to 2 or 4 football field

All of your cells, literally a quadrillion mitochondria and their internal proton factory surface area

Devin where did you get these figures lmao

That’s accounting for the cell at the size they are. The total convoluted surface area packed into all of your cells is equivalent to that much surface area

how big would my cells be in this scenario?

Mind-blowing amount of surface area for energy production! 🤯

Wait what?
More context, how’s this possible

Power house, a size of a football pitch!!!
And that’s just a part of the human cell

Whattt?? Who counts them😅

How are these numbers documented
