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.

∙ 8y agoCells which require/expend more energy, such as muscle cells, would require more mitochondria. This is because mitochondria are the site of cellular respiration, where the form of energy used by the cell (ATP) is created.

∙ 11y agoThe two human cells that contain the most mitochondria would probably be the liver cells and the muscle cells.
This is because both are highly involved in movement and activity therefore requiring more energy to carry out their work.

Also muscle cells.

What type of cells contain lots of mitochondria?
Active cells such as muscle and liver cells have more mitochondria than others because they use up a lot more energy to carry out their roles and stay alive. Thus needing the extra mitochondria to produce more energy.
Which type of cell would be more likely to have many mitochondria fat cell or muscle cell?
Mitochondria is the part of cells that generate energy by turning nutrients and oxygen into fuel for the body. Muscle cells need this ability more because they are constantly working; fat cells do not need it as much.
What type of specialized cell would have lots of mitochondria?
Muscle cells have lots of mitochondria. Mitochondria is known as a "powerhouse" of the cell. In the inner membrane matrix of the mitochondria there are ATP synthases that generate ATP energy.
What type of cell has more than one mitochondria?
Almost all cell have more than one mitochondria, but maximum concentration is found in fast growing and multiplying cells.
What type of cell would you find lots of mitochondria?
Muscle cells often contain many mitochondria because muscle cells often require a lot of energy, and since mitochondria create ATP which is the form of energy used by our bodies, it is essential to have many of them in cells that constantly require more energy than, as an example, skin cells.
What type of cells are mitochondria in?
Mitochondria are in eukariyotes.They are not in prokariyotes.
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
What type of cells contain lots of mitochondria?
Active cells such as muscle and liver cells have more mitochondria than others because they use up a lot more energy to carry out their roles and stay alive. Thus needing the extra mitochondria to produce more energy.
What type of cell would have no mitochondria no nucleus and no Golgi apparatus but would have ribosomes?
Prokaryotic Cells
Which type of cell would be more likely to have many mitochondria fat cell or muscle cell?
Mitochondria is the part of cells that generate energy by turning nutrients and oxygen into fuel for the body. Muscle cells need this ability more because they are constantly working; fat cells do not need it as much.
What type of cell has a mitochondria?
Eukaryotic cells have mitochondria (singular mitochondrion).
Why does a muscle cell have more mitochondria in it than other type of cells?
Muscle cells are very active. Function of muscles cost lot of energy. So they need many mitochondria
Is mitochondria found in plant cells or both?
They are found in both type of cells. Mitochondria are essential for cellular respiration
What type of specialized cell would have lots of mitochondria?
Muscle cells have lots of mitochondria. Mitochondria is known as a "powerhouse" of the cell. In the inner membrane matrix of the mitochondria there are ATP synthases that generate ATP energy.
What type of cells are found in the mitochondria found in?
plants and animal cells
What type of cell has more than one mitochondria?
Almost all cell have more than one mitochondria, but maximum concentration is found in fast growing and multiplying cells.
What type of cells do the mitochondria take place in?
Mitochondria is in both animal cells, and plant cells. The mitochondria is the part of the cell that is like the small power house in the animal/plant cell.
