Students have asked these similar questions
Myocardium (cardiac muscle tissue) must rhythmically contract for a lifetime. This requires aconsiderable amount of energy production by the cells. You would expect to see a relatively high amount of which organelle in these cells?
A - smooth endoplasmic reticulum
B - mitochondria
C - cytoskeleton
D - lysosomes
The number of a particular kind of organelle may change during the life
cycle of a cell. As a tadpole matures into a frog, its tail gradually
disappears completely.
Identify the role of various organelles as the tadpole changes into a frog.
Imagine that you are given an unknown cell sample. You visualize the sample under
the microscope and you notice that it has a large number of mitochondria. Based on
this observation, what can you say about the function of this cell?
The cell might be storing a large amount of toxins.
The cell might engulf and digest a large amount of material.
The cell might require large amounts of energy.
The cell might degrade large amounts of fatty acids.
