Question
not all cells in the body have the same amount of each organelle. muscle cells do more work than any other cell, and therefore must have more energy to be able to function. knowing this, which organelle would you expect to find more of in a muscle cell? * 1 point
chromosomes
mitochondria
lysosomes
nucleus
Muscle cells need more energy for work. Mitochondria are the "powerhouses" of cells, producing ATP (energy). Chromosomes are for genetic info, lysosomes for digestion, and nucleus for control—none produce energy like mitochondria. So muscle cells should have more mitochondria.
