Answer:the villi of the intestine

Explanation:like the cristae of the mitochondria which increase the surface area for the production of ATP,the villi of the intestine acts similarly.

In animals, digested food pass from the stomach to the intestine. In the intestine , enzymes acts on the food. Absorption of food takes place there and there are some structures that facilitates it. The walls of the intestine have numerous foldings , alongside the presence of finger like projection called villi. Microvilli are also presence from the cell walls of the intestine . These projections increase the surface area for the absorbing of food .they brush against food in the intestine and promotes absorption of nutrients.

{\huge{\sf{\green{\underline {\underline {Answer }}}}}}

  • Three major types of RNA are mRNA, or messenger RNA, that serve as temporary copies of the information found in DNA; rRNA, or ribosomal RNA, that serve as structural components of protein-making structures known as ribosomes; and finally, tRNA, or transfer RNA, that ferry amino acids to the ribosome to be assembled .

  • RNA carries genetic information from the nucleus to ribosomes for the synthesis of proteins; while tRNA carries specific amino acids to the ribosomes to assist the protein biosynthesis, and on the other hand, rRNA provides the structural framework for the formation of ribosomes.
