Mitochondria are the organelles present in the eukaryotic cell, which are also known as the powerhouse of the cell.
The structure and the number of mitochondria differ in the tissue depending on the function of the cell.
For example, the RBC cells do not perform any metabolism, therefore, lack mitochondria.
But a heart cell which has to pump the blood requires more energy and thus are more metabolically active require a high amount of energy and thus posses a high number of mitochondria.
