Which fraction would you take to obtain mitichondria, and why?
O Fraction 2 because mitochondria contain haemoglobin. giving them a reddish colour
O Fraction 3 because it is the most dense fraction
O It is impossible to decide without further testing
O Fraction 1 because it is the least dense fraction
O Fraction 2, because mitochondria contain haem, giving them a reddish colour
Increasing density of
