WHICH ORGANEllE WOULD BE IN GREAT ABUNDANCE IN A CELL THAT USES A GREAT AMOUNT OF ENERGY?
84526
I would say mitochondria.

Mitochondria in animal cells convert energy into forms the animal cell can use.  Chloroplasts in plant cells are necessary for photosynthesis, converting sunlight into energy the plant cell can use.

Theory? I mean, I can think of the endosymbiotic theory, but that's eukaryotes. Perhaps you mean the organelle that carries out photosynthesis in prokaryotes?

Yeah, more mitochondria for energy and more ribosomes (rough ER) to produce proteins necessary for contraction (actin + myosin).\n\nRegards,\nRyan

the problem to this question is that who will decide the limit of structures, look..!  if you\ntalk about chromosomes then chromatids are also structures similaly genes and then DNA &\nthen centromere & then histone protein........\nat last this discussions come to end at an atom\nbut i still say electrons and protons .........\nso it is difficult :\nanyway i think that ribosomes may be considred as smalles functional alive \norgenelli of the cell

chloroplast of course!\nPHOTOSYNTHESIS!!

The mitrochondrion is the powerhouse of the cell, or the battery that gives it the energy it needs. Hope this helps.

in mitocondria and chloroplasts there is a series of proteins which 'pass on' electrons to generate energy.  It's called 'electron transport', and is usually discussed in terms of glycolysis and photosynthesis

golgi bodies are organelles found in eukaryotic plant and animal cells. They process and package molecules synthesized by the cell, which are usually lipids or proteins.

Endoplasmic reticulum = 1\nRibosome(s)                 = several\nNucleus                         = 1 but has an inner Nucleolus\nlysosome                      = several\ngolgi bodies                   = I think 1  :)\nmitochondria                 = as u said "mitochondria" & not mitochondrion, so there are several of them\nvacuole                          = several (unlike the plant cell which has one big vacuole)\ncheers

A model of a cell is a good choice.

Chromosones record genetic information. And aren't even organelles, they're part of the nucleus. ---> X\nNucleus ----> X\n\nMitochondria turn sugar into AtP (energy).\nChlorpasts store solar energy in the form of sugar.\n\nMitochondria function whenever oxygen is present and sugar is available.\nChloroplasts whenever CO2 and sun-light are available.

B) Membrane-bound organelles\nThe procariotic cells are like a water-filled baloon, they are just a cover with water and other things (of course, this is only an example), while eukaryotic cells have compartiments.\nEvery cell has DNA, that's the way information is passed from cell to cell when they reproduce.\nRibosomes are important for producing proteins, every cell has to have them, even if with time they lose them.\nCytoplasm is the 75% of every cell, it's basically water, proteins and other things.

i think plant and animal cells both have mitochondria. Because mitochondria is the so called powerhouse of the cell, which means the cell derives its energy from the mirochondria. So plant and animal cells should have it to provide them energy.

Eukaryotic cells have a definite nucleus, membrane bound organelles, usually larger in size (when compared to a prokaryotic cell), and certain eukaryotes are multicellular.\n\nProkaryotic cells do not have a definite nucleus, do not have membrane bound organelles, are much smaller in size (when compared to a eukaryotic cell), and are single celled.

Adenosine Triphosphate, of course... or ATP for short.  All cells use ATP to generate energy, which the cells accomplish by breaking off one phosphate ion, which triggers a release of energy and turns the ATP molecule into an ADP molecule.

RNA is the one also found in the cytoplasm.
