Answer
You would expect to find many mitochondria in a muscle cell. This is because the mitochondria makes the energy fo a cell, and muscle cells need alot of energy to do their job. The more energy a cell needs to do its job, the more mitochondria it has.

Why does the muscle cell have more mitochondria? Does the muscle cell contain the largest amount of mitochondria? What organelles does a muscle cell need to carry out its functions? What cell organelles would you expect to find in abundance in muscle cells? What other cell organelles would you expect to find in abundance in muscle cells? How would you expect the number of mitochondria in a cell to be related to the amount of active transport it carries out?
