Mitochondria are the cell structures (organelles) which are responsible for releasing energy from glucose (sugar) in a cell. The number of mitochondria in a cell will depend on how much energy that cell needs. Skin cells basically form a protective layer on the body. They are produced by a layer of cells beneath the skin which divide to produce new cells. The cells above get pushed gradually to the surface. As this happens they become waterproofed by filling with a substance called keratin, and gradually die. So the surface layers of your skin (the bits you can see and touch) are in fact dead cells! As they are dead, they do not need any energy. Cardiac cells are muscle cells found in the heart. Their function is to repeatedly contract, providing the heart with the ability to pump blood around the body. So they will need a continuous supply of energy. If you have read this far, you should now be able to work out which kind of cell has the most mitochondria.
What else can I help you with?
Compared to a skin cell a muscle cell is likely to have more?
A muscle cell is likely to have more mitochondria to support its energy demands for contraction, more myofibrils for muscle function, and a well-developed network of sarcoplasmic reticulum to regulate calcium levels for muscle contractions.
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
What parts of the skin cell is visible?
The parts of a skin cell that are typically visible include the cell membrane, nucleus, cytoplasm, and sometimes organelles like mitochondria or endoplasmic reticulum. These structures can be seen using a light microscope.
What does a skin cell diagram reveal about the structure and function of skin cells?
A skin cell diagram shows the different parts of a skin cell and how they work together. It reveals that skin cells have a protective outer layer called the cell membrane, a nucleus that controls cell functions, and organelles like mitochondria for energy production. This structure helps skin cells carry out their functions, such as protecting the body from external threats and repairing damage.
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 kind of cell in the human body do you think would have more mitochondria cell or a skin cell?
They are in active cells. Some like muscle and cardiac cells
Which cell has more mitochondria a muscle cell or a skin cell?
Muscle cells have thousands more mitochondria.
What kind of cell in the human body do you think would have more mitochondria a muscle cell. Or a skin cell?
Muscle cells are very active relatively to the skin cell. So it has more mitochondria
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.
Which kind of cell in the human body do you think would have more mitochondria- a muscle or a skin cell?
"muscle"
Which cell with contain more Mitochondria skin or so muscles?
Muscles have many mitochondria. It needs much energy for contractions
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.
Why would you find more mitochondria in a muscle cell than in a skin cell?
u got troled by ali
Would you expect skin cells to contain more or fewer mitochondria than muscles cells?
would you expect skin cells to contain more or fewer mitochondria than muscle cell?
What has more mitochondria a heart cell or a skin cell?
Muscles cells require vast amounts more mitochondria, in order to release the ATP energy necessary to contract and help us move.
Would be more numerous in muscle cell than in skin cells?
Mitochondria are more numerous in muscle cells than in skin cells. Mitochondria give the muscle cells energy. Skin cells do not need as much energy to survive.
Compared to a skin cell a muscle cell is likely to have more?
A muscle cell is likely to have more mitochondria to support its energy demands for contraction, more myofibrils for muscle function, and a well-developed network of sarcoplasmic reticulum to regulate calcium levels for muscle contractions.
