What does the presence of many mitochondria imply about a cell's energy requirements? The number of mitochondria provides no implication of energy needs. It has a low demand for energy. There is a fluctuation in the energy needs, so flexibility is required. It has a high demand for energy.

Number of mitochondria in various cells Liver cell ~2,500 Skeletal muscle cell ~1,200 White blood cell in lung ~700 Dermal cell (just under the skin) ~200 White adipose cell (fat storage) ~100 Red blood cell 0 Number of mitochondria per cell What conclusion can be drawn from this infographic? Red blood cells are likely to be prokaryotic since they lack mitochondria. Liver cells seem to be at least twice as large as skeletal muscle cells. White adipose cells appear to be more metabolically active than white blood cells. Skeletal muscle cells seem to have a higher energy demand than dermal cells.
