Cells that require the most energy contain the most energy generating mitochondria. The cells of the brain, the skeletal muscle and heart muscle, and the eye contain the highest number of mitochondria (as many as 10,000 per cell) while the skin cells, which do not require much energy, contain only a few hundred of them.

At least 10 in each cell.


Which cell with contain more Mitochondria skin or so muscles?

Muscles have many mitochondria. It needs much energy for contractions


What kind of cell in the human body do you think would have more mitochondria a muscle cell. Or a skin cell?

Muscle cells are very active relatively to the skin cell. So it has more mitochondria


Which kind of cell in the human body would have more mitochondria- a muscle cell or a skin cell?

Muscle cells have more mitochondria because they require more energy to contract than skin cells.


Which kind of cell in the human body do you think would have more mitochondria- a muscle or a skin cell?

"muscle"

How many mitochondria are in each cell?

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


Would you expect skin cells to contain more or fewer mitochondria than muscles cells?

would you expect skin cells to contain more or fewer mitochondria than muscle cell?


How can the number of mitochondria in a cell decide its function?

The number of mitochondria in a cell can influence its function by providing more energy for cellular activities. Cells with higher energy demands, like muscle cells, tend to have more mitochondria to support energy production through aerobic respiration. Conversely, cells with lower energy needs, like skin cells, may have fewer mitochondria.


What kind of cell in the human body has more mitochondria muscle cell or skin cell?

The muscle cell, as they require more energy than other cells.


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.
