Why are neurons and muscle cells rich in mitochondria?
Those cells are metabolically very active. So a lot is found
Why are metabolically active cells limited to very small sizes?
They are more metabolically acitve then larger cells because they have a smaller surface area to volume ratio then the larger cells which means the enzymes and proteins can move around faster and this makes the cell metabolically active.
When cell is not dividing it is in?
the G0 phase of the cell cycle where it "rests" until it may be brought back to be divided (back to G1 phase) or may remain there for fully differentiated cells (cells that are specialized like neurons and muscle cells).
Which cell types remain in a non-dividing stage and do not complete the mitosis?
muscle cells and nerve cells. E.G. Nerve cells can never be created again after they die.
What type of tissue would likely be composed of cells that contain many mitochondria?
Cells that do a lot of work or activity such as muscle cells.
What happens to the cells that enter the G0 stage?
The cells are alive and metabolically active.
What Happens To Cells That Enter To G0 Stage?
The cells are alive and metabolically active.
Mitochondria appear in the greatest numbers in cells that are?
metabolically active
What is the characteristic property of metabolically active cell?
Metabolically active cells have many characteristic properties. A healthy growth of cell number and cell activity is one property. Low numbers of decaying cells and active cell proliferation are other characteristics of metabolic activity.
What are found in all metabolically active cells and are involved primarily in transporting materials?
vesicles
Why are neurons and muscle cells rich in mitochondria?
Those cells are metabolically very active. So a lot is found
Why are metabolically active cells limited to very small sizes?
They are more metabolically acitve then larger cells because they have a smaller surface area to volume ratio then the larger cells which means the enzymes and proteins can move around faster and this makes the cell metabolically active.
Which cells in your body would have a large number of mitochondria?
Metabolically very active cells. Examples are cardiac and muscle cels
What phase do cells remain in when not dividing?
sphincter
Cells that are not dividing remain in the phase of what?
the G1 phase, dawg!
Why would some cells like muscle cells have more mitochondria than another type of cell?
They are metabolically very active. They need a lot of energy
When cell is not dividing it is in?
the G0 phase of the cell cycle where it "rests" until it may be brought back to be divided (back to G1 phase) or may remain there for fully differentiated cells (cells that are specialized like neurons and muscle cells).
