Description: Adorn yourself with the mighty mitochondrion! A remarkable organelle, so critical to life, and yet so rarely represented in art... The outer membrane of this mitochondrion, cast in brightly polished pewter, opens up to reveal the convoluted inner membrane, antiqued to emphasize its details. This inner membrane also opens, revealing the ribosomes, DNA, and other structures in the matrix within! The incredible importance of this organelle is indicated by the presence of mitochondria, often in great numbers, in almost all eukaryotic cells. The mitochondrion is known best as the cellular dynamo, the source of most of the cell's adenosine triphosphate (ATP), but it is also known to play many other important roles in the life and death of the cell. A unique gift for biologists, students, or anyone interested in the science of life! Comes with an adjustable-length 2mm leather necklace cord Dimensions: 3.2 cm long (not including loop) x 1.4 cm wide x 1.2 cm high Weight: 22 grams
