Related Theory Mitochondria is sausage-shaped or cylindrical having double membrane, dividing its lumen distinctly into two aqueous compartments, i.e., the outer compartment and the inner compartment. The outer membrane forms the continuous limiting boundary of the organelle. The inner membrane forms a number of infoldings called the cristae towards the matrix, which increase the surface area.

Hence, the correct answer is option: 'A'.
