Question :

Why do Heart muscle cells have more mitochondrion compared to stomach muscle cells?

Answer :

Heart is an organ of survival importance in any living organism. It should be pumping blood constantly to all parts if the blood. Human heart is myogenic,i.e.,it is controlled by muscles. Cardiac Muscles to be more precise.

  • Cardiac Muscles have a tendency to never exhibit fatigue or stop working until death

  • Mitochondrion is the termed as the "powerhouse of the cell" and is associated with energy production

  • It's evident that cardiac muscles have more energy needs in order to contribute to the beating of heart.

Thus,heart muscle cells have more mitochondrion

Just as a car runs on gasoline, your cells run on ATP.

The heart is a muscular organ in most animals, which pumps blood through the blood vessels of the circulatory system.

  • Mitochondria are the organelles in the cell that produce energy in the form of ATP.
  • Muscles require a large amount of energy to function. This is provided primarily by mitochondria in cells that consume a lot of energy.
  • Our heart muscles contain so much mitochondria because those muscles are very active in our body and require lots of energy to constantly pump blood through our circulatory system.

∞ Heart muscle is truly amazing.

∞ It is constantly contracting and relaxing, and never tires.

There are more mitochondria found in heart cells because this means we are able to produce enough energy to keep it functioning efficiently.

Mitochondria are the means of providing energy for this constant activity, and a lot are needed for this.
