Question

If a certain tissue of the body needs more energy, which organelle is more likely to be abundant in the cells of this tissue? Elucidate your answer.

Answer 1

Answer:

Mitochondria

Mitochondria are membrane-bound cell organelles (mitochondrion, singular) that generate most of the chemical energy needed to power the cell's biochemical reactions. Chemical energy produced by the mitochondria is stored in a small molecule called adenosine triphosphate (ATP).

Answer 2

Answer:

All eukaryotic cells contain a discernible amount of rough ER because it is needed for the synthesis of plasma-membrane proteins and proteins of the extracellular matrix. Rough ER is particularly abundant in cells that are specialized to produce secreted proteins.
