Verified step by step guidance

Understand the structure and function of mitochondria: Mitochondria are known as the powerhouses of the cell, involved in energy metabolism by producing ATP through cellular respiration.

Recognize the structural features of mitochondria: They have a double membrane structure, consisting of an outer membrane and a highly folded inner membrane. The folds of the inner membrane are called cristae, which increase the surface area for ATP production.

Identify the genetic aspect of mitochondria: Mitochondria possess their own circular DNA, which is separate from the nuclear DNA, allowing them to produce some of their own proteins.

Clarify the location of ribosomes in mitochondria: Mitochondria contain ribosomes, but these are located in the mitochondrial matrix, not in the intermembrane space. The intermembrane space is the area between the outer and inner membranes.

Evaluate the statements: Based on the understanding of mitochondrial structure and function, determine that the statement 'Mitochondria contain ribosomes in the intermembrane space' is false, as ribosomes are found in the matrix.
