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.
  • So, the correct answer is 'Mitochondria'.
