A high concentration of mitochondria would be expected in heart cells. Heart muscle cells (cardiomyocytes) require a significant amount of energy to sustain their constant contractions and maintain the heart's pumping function, making mitochondria, the powerhouses of the cell, particularly abundant in these cells.
