Some bacteria build internal 'power cables' to extend respiration beyond the cell membrane

All living cells need energy, and most generate it through respiration, a series of chemical reactions normally confined to the cell membrane. Because this machinery takes up space, a cell's energy-generating capacity has long been thought to depend on how much membrane it can build. Complex cells…
