Control groups are used as a source of comparison in the experiment, so when you are testing the experimental group, you can see how the results are different than the control group. It makes the results more accurate.

So there is something to compare the changed part of the experiment too. The reason why I created a control group for if My plants grew faster in the dark or the light is to compare the growth speed if there was any. I put one on my porch outside where it was under direct sunlight. I put another on my desk where it got light only on certain parts of the day and I put the last one in my closet where it hadn't received any sunlight. in this case my plant on my desk would be my control group.
Hope this helps :D<span />

tensa zangetsu [6.8K]

Answer:

The double membrane of the mitochondria is highly folded,and therefore wider when unfolded than that of the nucleus.This is an adaptive feature  to increase the surface area for reactions (electrochemical  gradient) by accommodating protons pumped into it by the proton motive force(PMF)  from the matrix to set up the electrochemical gradients needed to generate the energy needed by ATPase synthase enzymes for ATPs synthesis.

Required number of protons needed to be accommodated by the double membrane to generate enough energy for ATPase synthesis,therefore larger surface area is needed.
