Muscle cells need the most mitochondria, because the most energy is being produced there. Red Blood cells and White Blood (excluding Helper and Suppressor T) cells have the 2nd most amount, which are just enough to sustain life and all of the cell's functions. Last are brain cells, because most functions are cause by specific chemical reactions that cause energy themselves without needing the functions of the mitochondria.

∙ 13y agoEvery cell in the living world has mitochondria as it is the power house of cell .They are responsible for cellular respiration and generating energy for different activities of life . If mitochondria will not be their it will be diffficult for the cell to live . Actually cell will not even live .

∙ 14y agosperm cells are loaded with mitochondria becasue the cell needs lots of energy vs other cells that do need as much energy skin cells

Which type of cells would have more mitochondria and why?
Mitochondria is a procaryotic remnant in our cells with the purpose of creating energy needed by cells to perform their function. Some sells need more energy that others and therefore tend to have more mitochondria. Cells that need lot of energy (ATP) has more mitochondria than cells that require less.
Why does a bacterial cell not contain a mitochondria?
Bacterial cells don't perform the krebs cyce or oxidative phosphorylation steps of cellular respiration and therefore do not need mitochondria. Bacteria only perform glycolysis which is done in the cytoplasm to convert glucose into ATP to drive cellular work.
Which cell is mitochondrion found in animal cell or plant cell?
Actually,it depends however we can say that animal cell has more mitochondria. As plant cells' motion consists of locomotion which means moving on their axis,they utilise less energy. However,animal cells' motion is an active one so they utilise more ATP.Thus,animal cells have more mitochondria than plant cells as they produce energy much more.
Studies of fat cells and thyroid cells show that fat cells have fewer mitochondria than thyroid cells A biologist would most likely infer that fat tissue?
requires less energy then thyroid tissue
Would you expect to find more mitochondria in liver cells which are very active or in teeth cells which are less active Why?
active cells or cells such as in brown fat(found in babies for extra warmth). mitochondira make energy available for the cell. so cells that need a lot of energy would have extra mirochondion.
Do muscle cells have more or less mitochondria than other animal cells?
Muscle cells have more mitochondria than other animal cells because the need more energy to preform their job, and mitochondria produce the energy for the cell.
Why do yeast cells need less mitochondria in a no oxygen environment?
Because this is America.
Why do same cells contain many mitochondria?
Skeletal muscle cells, for instance, contain many mitochondria because the energy consumed in the contraction of the sarcomere is enormous. Skin cells, for instance, contain much less mitochondria as the cellular work the need to do is minimal compared to skeletal muscle cells.
If the cell is active does it have more or less mitochondria?
An active cell will contain more mitochondria than an inactive cell. Mitochondria produce ATP, the main form of energy for cells.
Which one has less mitochondria digestive or adipose cells?
Adipose cells most certainly. Fat storage cells do not meed the same amount of energy as digestive cells do.

When does respiration occure?
Respiration occures in the cells of the body. Respiration is always occurring. We are always breathing, so respiration is always occurring Respiration occurs inside cells in organelles called MITOCHONDRIA. MITOCHONDRIA are found in both plant and animal cell.Cells that have a high energy requirement contain more MITOCHONDRIA than cells that require less energy. The muscle cell in your legs, for example: Have lots of MITOCHONDRIA.
Would skin cells normally contain more or fewer mitochondria than muscle cells?
Muscle cells are very active relatively to the skin cell. So it has more mitochondria
Why do cells get more air when you exercise?
When you exercise you take in less Oxygen. Because this is so, your mitochondria switches to a way to make every that uses less air. The extra air you breathe in goes straight into your cells

requires less energy then thyroid tissue
