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.


Which of your cells would you expect to have more mitochondriz your muscle cells or your bone cells?

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


Why do slow twitch muscle fibers have more mitochondria compared to fast twitch muscle fibers?

Slow twitch muscle fibers have more mitochondria compared to fast twitch muscle fibers because they rely more on aerobic metabolism for energy production, which requires a higher number of mitochondria to generate ATP efficiently.


What cells are expected to have more mitochondria?

Cells with high energy demands, such as muscle cells, liver cells, and neurons, are generally expected to have more mitochondria. Mitochondria are the powerhouse of the cell, responsible for producing ATP, the cell's main energy source. Therefore, cells that require a lot of energy for activities like muscle contraction, detoxification in the liver, or maintaining electrical impulses in neurons will have more mitochondria.


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.

What is the difference between a stem and a muscle cell?

A stem cell, if put near a muscle cell, will transform itself into more muscle cells. If a stem cell is put near the cell of an organ, it will "replicate" the cells of that organ. (if and only IF the stem cell is deemed compatible and has nutrients) A muscle cell if put near anything not muscle ... will do nothing (very likely will be killed/absorbed by the antibodies), if put near a muscle, it should try to integrate itself into working in tandem with that muscle.


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.


If you were to compare a muscle cell of an active person to an inactive person what is the difference in the cell?

If the muscle cell in question is part of a muscle the active person uses regularly, the cell will be bigger and have more nuclei than a less active muscle cell.

Who has more nuclei per cell skeletal muscle or cardiac muscle?

which has more nuclei per cell skeletal muscle or cardiac muscle? I guess that they both have the same number of nuclei.


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.
