Mitochondrial model with a single cristae. (A) Proton concentration distribution (expressed as pH) in the inner mitochondrial space (cristae and non-cristae portions). (B) Geometry used to investigate the effect of detailed cristae morphology. (C) Effect of the surface-to-volume ratio (SVR) on the average PMF on the cristae membrane ($\mathsf{\Delta }{p}_{CM}$).
