What else can I help you with?
Mitochondria appear in the greatest numbers in cells that are?
Highly active and demand a lot of energy, such as muscle cells.
Which organelles are more numerous in active cells?
If a cell is very active, it would need to have a large number of Mitochondria.
How would you expect the number of mitochondria in a cell to be related to the amount of active transport it carries out?
Well, I suppose that since mitochondria are the the main production centers of ATP and Active Transport requires ATP, that these two are directly proportional. The more mitochondria a cell has, the more ATP it can make, and the more it can do Active Transport
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.
Which tissues' cells have the greatest number of mitochondria?
Muscle cells have the greatest number of mitochondria compared to other tissues' cells.

Which organelles are more numerous in active cells?
If a cell is very active, it would need to have a large number of Mitochondria.
Why would some cells have large amounts of mitochondria and others may not?
Because they are very active. They need a lot of energy.
A cell with relatively few energy needs will probably have a relatively small number of mitochondria?
Yes, a cell with relatively few energy needs typically contains a smaller number of mitochondria, as these organelles are responsible for producing ATP through cellular respiration. For example, cells in tissues that do not require a high energy output, such as certain types of skin or connective tissue cells, will have fewer mitochondria compared to highly active cells like muscle or nerve cells. The number of mitochondria in a cell is generally proportional to its energy demands.

Which cells in your body would have a large number of mitochondria?
Metabolically very active cells. Examples are cardiac and muscle cels
Why do cardiac muscle cells have a large number of mitochondria?
Cardiac cells are very active. A lot of energy is needed
What kind of cells might have a high number of mitochondria?
Cells with a high energy demand, such as muscle cells and liver cells, typically have a high number of mitochondria. Mitochondria produce energy in the form of ATP through cellular respiration, so cells that require a lot of energy to function efficiently will have more mitochondria.
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.
What kind of cells would likely have large numbers of mitochondria in humans Why?
Mitochondria are the power houses. Active cells have many
How would the number of mitochondria in an insects wing compare to the amount found in other cells in an insect's body?
Their wings hold more active cells (muscle cells).
Which tissues' cells have the greatest number of mitochondria?
Muscle cells have the greatest number of mitochondria compared to other tissues' cells.
