Explanation:
Muscle cells are assiciated with a large number of mitochondria as they require more ATP (energy) to function than other cells. They need this because of their frequent contraction and relaxation, which requires more ATP than average cells.
Methanogens, halophiles, thermophiles

While it's true that Fossils hardly even contain DNA, they can still provide numerous clues in order to identify and verify an organism.
For example, in terms of Dinosaurs, their bones and fossils have provided enough evidence to provide an evolutionary link with modern birds.
Carbon dating is another way to find the age of a fossil which provides more information on it's surrounding habitat and the animals it interacted with.
