What else can I help you with?
Can the cardiac muscle have a high concentration of mitochondria?
Of course it has. It is very active cell type
What organelle found in muscle but very few in fat cell?
The mitochondria
What cell contains most mitochondria?
Muscle cells, such as those found in the heart or skeletal muscles, contain the most mitochondria as they require a lot of energy to function. Mitochondria are the powerhouse of the cell and are responsible for producing ATP, which is essential for muscle contraction.
What type of tissue would likely be composed of cells that contain many mitochondria?
Cells that do a lot of work or activity such as muscle cells.
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
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
Why does a muscle cell have more mitochondria in it than other types of cell?
Muscle cells are very active. Function of muscles cost lot of energy. So they need many mitochondria
How many mitochondria are there in skeletal muscle?
It depends on the type of skeletal muscle. Slow and fast oxidative fibers (type I and type IIa) may have many mitochondria. Fast glycolytic fibers (type IIx/IIb) have very few mitochondria. This is because in fast glycolytic fibers (type IIx/IIb) ATP can be produced outside of the mitochondrion in the cytosol of the cell due to high concentrations of glycolytic enzymes present in these fibers. In contrast, in oxidative fibers ATP is produced mostly within the mitochondrion, so more mitochondria are needed to to produce large amounts of ATP. Also, the number of mitochondria in these cells can increase with adaptations to exercise conditioning.
Would you see more mitochondria in muscle cells or fat cells?
Of course in muscle cells.They are very active cells
What type of muscle would have the most mitochondria?
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.
Which organelle would be most common in muscle cells?
Mitochondrion because they are responsible for producing energy
Why are there more mitochondria on muscle cells?
Muscles are very active.They need a lot of energy.
