Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Muscles have the most mitochondria.
A
True:They undergo the most cell respiration
B
True:They undergo fermentation
C
False:They undergo fermentation so they dont require oxygen
D
False:They do not have mitochondria
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Cellular respiration plays a key role in returning the muscles to normal after exercise, converting the excess pyruvate into ATP and regenerating the stores of ATP, phosphocreatine, and glycogen in the muscle that are required for more rapid contractions.

Detailed explanation-2: -Answer and Explanation: It is generally believed that the cells that have the most mitochondria in them are the muscle cells. The mitochondria are the energy-producing organelles of the cell, so the tissues of the body that are involved with the most energy productive have the most mitochondria.

Detailed explanation-3: -Answer and Explanation: The following statement is true about the mitochondrion of a cell: d) It is where cellular respiration occurs. The mitochondria is often called the “powerhouse” of the cell, because the process of cellular respiration releases energy that can be used for other cellular processes.

Detailed explanation-4: -What cells have the most mitochondria? A. Your heart muscle cells – with about 5, 000 mitochondria per cell. These cells need more energy, so they contain more mitochondria than any other organ in the body!
