The number of mitochondria varies depending on the type of cell. They are most abundant in liver cells with about 1000 to 2000 mitochondria per cell.

There are about 50 -100 per cell

Depends on the cells requirement for energy. Muscle cells will have a lot more mitochondria than skin cells. Muscle cells may have upwards of 100 mitochondria compared with cells with low energy requirements which may only have about 20

Mitochondria is the organelles that break down food molecules so that the cell has the energy to live. Depending on the job the cell has, its the amount of mitochondria it carries. The more energy the cell needs to surivive, the more mitochondria it has. A single human cell can carry up to several thousands of mitochondria. Benjamin2010

The number of mitochondrias in a cell depends on the cell. More active the cell, more mitochondrias there are in that particular cell.

Skeletal Muscles. 300 mitochondria. Activities that you do. Cardiac Muscles. 200 mitochondria. Heart pumps so it needs energy.


How do you destroy the mitochondria in the cell?

The only way to kill the mitochondria in the cell is.... die. Life's processes are fueled by the energy that the mitochondria produce with the molecules that are taken in whether be plant or animal. Animal cells may contain more than one mitochondria for each cell. There can be as many as 20 individual mitochondria housed in a single cell.


Would you expect a muscle cell to have many or few mitochondria?

You would expect to find many mitochondria in a muscle cell. This is because the mitochondria makes the energy fo a cell, and muscle cells need alot of energy to do their job. The more energy a cell needs to do its job, the more mitochondria it has.
