Where would you expect to find the kupffer cells of the liver and what is their function?

Function of Kupffer cellsLiver contains macrophages called Kupffer cells. These cells engulf and breakdown toxic matter such as microorganisms, dead cells and chemicals. Kupffer cells ingest microorganism by phagocytosis. The engulfed microorganism is called phagosome. Lysosmes in the cytoplasm of kupffer cell, fuse with the phagosome and release digestive enzymes. These enzymes breakdown and kill the microorganism.But how does kupffer cell identify toxic matter?There are receptors for the toxic matter on the surface of kupffer cells. The harmful particle and these receptors of kupffer cell can fit together like pieces of a puzzle. The harmful particle is then engulfed by kupffer cell.


Where would you expect to find the hepatic macrophages of the liver?

Hepatic macrophages are special phagocytic cells, also called Kupffer cells, that line the sinusoids and remove debris from the blood.


Where in the human body would you find cells with more mitochondria?

Cells with more mitochondria are typically found in tissues that require a lot of energy, such as muscle cells and liver cells.


What kind of organelle would you expect to find very abundant in liver cells that are engaged in detoxifying lipid-soluble drugs?

The kind of organelle that is very abundant in liver cells is the endoplasmic reticulum (ER), specifically the smooth ER. It is found in the hepatocytes of the liver that detoxifies lipid-soluble drugs.


Where do you expect to find more mitochondria?

You would expect to find more mitochondria in cells that require a lot of energy, such as muscle cells or liver cells. These cells need more mitochondria to produce ATP through cellular respiration to meet their energy demands.


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.


Would you find more mitochondria in the muscle cell or the liver cell of an athlete?

Muscle cells because mitochondria is a cells energy source and in order for an athlete to play their sport or do their activities, they need a lot of energy.


In which kinds of human cells would you expect to find the most mitochondria?

Mitochondria is a cite in the cytoplasm also known as power house of the cell because of their energy generating ability in the cell. In humans there are many life activities that goes on in the body in order to make life possible. The prominent activity is that needs large amount of energy is reproduction. This occurs in the tissues, hence mitochondria are mostly found in muscle tissues for this life activity.


If you took a virus would you find cells?

Yes, you find cells in everything.


Which organelle would you expect to find in plant cells but not find in animal cells?

Chloroplast


In which types of cells would you find cytoplasm?

All cells do


In what types of cells would you expect to find a high concentration of mitochondria?

You would expect to find a high concentration of mitochondria in cells that require a lot of energy, such as muscle cells and nerve cells.
