Hemoglobin is the oxygen-carrying protein inside red blood cells. It gives red blood cells their red color. People with anemia do not have enough hemoglobin. The body needs certain vitamins, minerals, and nutrients to make enough red blood cells. Iron, vitamin B12, and folic acid are three of the most important ones.
Which organelle would you expect to find in abundance in a muscle cell? Mitochondria because ATP is needed for muscle contraction and the mitochondria is the site of ATP production (powerhouse). Edit
Mitochondria are called the power-houses of the cell, because this is where cellular respiration occurs (where the energy is made). Muscle cells perform much more work than â¦ cheek cells do, and so require more mitochondria.itochondria is the part of cells that generate energy by turning nutrients and oxygen into fuel for the body. Muscle cells need this ability more because they are constantly â¦ working; fat cells do not need it as much.
