I would say the muscle because they need a lot of ATPs (which mitochondria produces) in order to make the sacromere contract. Nerve cell would also need a lot of mitochondria because it needs to constantly send signals to all different directions using sodium-potassium pump which requires the use of ATPs.

Nerve cells use glucose as a primary source of fuel, so would have less mitochondria....cells which use fatty acids- and therefore Beta oxidation which can only take place in the mitochondria, are less likely to have a lot of mitochondria

Muscle cells have thousands 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.


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

"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.


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.
