What are mitochondria found in?
Mitochondria are found in eukaryotic cells, which are cells that contain a nucleus and other membrane-bound organelles. They are the powerhouse of the cell, playing a critical role in producing energy through a process called cellular respiration. Mitochondria are most abundant in cells that have high energy demands, such as muscle cells.
Would you find a mitochondria in a dog?
Yes, mitochondria are found in the cells of all eukaryotic organisms, including dogs. Mitochondria are known as the powerhouses of the cell because they generate energy in the form of ATP through cellular respiration.
Why do fatcells have few mithicondrias?
Fat cells have few mitochondria because they have little need for energy. Mitochondria transform glucose into energy.
Do heart cells have a lot of mitochondria or only a few?
Lots.
What organelles contain dna?
Nucleus,chloroplast,mitochondria,plasmidsthe mitochondria and chloroplast.DNA is found in the nucleus.DNA is generally located in the nucleus of a cell. There is some DNA in the mitochondria although there is significantly more DNA in the nucleus.In animal cells, DNA can be found in the nucleus and mitochondria of cells. In plant cells, DNA can be found in the nucleus, mitochondria, and chloroplast.
How many mitochondria does a skin cell have?
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.
What organelle found in muscle but very few in fat cell?
The mitochondria
Which cell don't have mitochondria in them?
RPCProkariyotic cells do not have any.Some eukariyotic cells like mammalian RBC lack mitochondria
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
Does yeast have a mitocondria?
Yes. A yeast cell is a eukaryotic cell and all eukaryotic cells have membrane bound organelles, that may include mitochondria. There are very few exceptions of eukaryotic cells not having mitochondria but yeast has them.
What has more mitochondria egg or sperm cell?
Sperm cells require more mitochondria because it takes a lot of energy to swim up to the Fallopian tube whereas egg cells get moved by the current the ciliated epithelium lining the tube create.
Why do some cells such as muscle cells have thousands of mitochondria while other cells have only a few hundred?
Because muscle cells are very active. So they need a lot of energy
