Likurg_2 [28]3 years ago
6 0

Anni [7]

Answer:

Muscle cells, especially heart muscle cells and fat cells have the most mitochondria in the human body.

Explanation:

Mitochondria, the powerhouse of the cell is an organelle where cellular respiration occurs. They supply energy to the cells for their functioning. The number of mitochondria in a cell vary depending on the energy requirement of that cell.
