Solution
The correct option is C Mitochondria
Cells involved in energy consumption have a large number of mitochondria.
The mitochondria is a double-membraned cell organelle, known as the powerhouse of the cell which is present in all eukaryotic cells.
The cells of muscles and the heart require more energy than the normal cells (skin) therefore, they have more mitochondria to produce more ATP molecules.
