Well this is a pretty simply question for a very complex topic. Mitochondria can vary within a cell type depending on environmental and life history variables. Some cell types have high mitochondria density, but are quite small (sperm) and some have lower mitochondrial density but are much larger (muscle cells). Other cells, like intestinal wall lining for example, also contain a lot of mitochondria.

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.
Why do muscle cells have more mitochondria than any other cell type?
Energy requirements of muscle tissue.
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.
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 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 kind of muscle tissue has the most mitochondria in it?
Type I muscle fibers
Which type of cell would have more mitochondria an egg cell or muscle cell?
muscle cell
What type of the cell would contain more mitochondria?
Muscle cell
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.
Which cell type found in the human body is likely to contain most mitochondria?
Answers: Muscle cell
What type of muscle has relatively few mitochondria?
Fast
Why do type 1 muscle fibers have the most mitochondria?
Because it is oxidative and depends mainly on oxidative phosphorylation for energy.
What muscle type maintain the highest contraction of mitochondria?
bloody bugers
Which type of muscle has very little mitochondria?
Mitochondria is the organelle that provides energy in the form of A.T.P. (adenosine-tri-phosphate) so the muscle cell that has the fewest mitochondria must be the muscle cells that do not require much energy like the muscles of the head etc.Type your answer here...
Why do muscle cells have more mitochondria than any other cell type?
Energy requirements of muscle tissue.
Which tissue type in the body contains the most mitochondria?
Mitochondria are the power-houses of every cell in your body (and all animals!). Inside these organelles the magic of respiration occurs through a process known as the "Krebs" cycle. Cells that use a lot of energy have the most mitochondria, most notably those that make up muscle, and any cell that divides frequently (such as basal cells in your skin). The body never puts the power-plant too far away from where it's needed, except in the case of nerve cells- These little guys use a TON of energy, but rely on other support cells to produce it! And you would find the most mitochondria in the muscle
What type of muscle is rich in ATP?
Muscle fibers are rich in ATP. All muscle fiber types are rich in ATP (having many mitochondria).
