Verified step by step guidance

Understand the role of oxygen in cellular respiration: Oxygen is crucial for the process of cellular respiration, which occurs in the mitochondria of cells to produce ATP, the energy currency of the cell.

Identify the function of each cell type: Red blood cells primarily transport oxygen, adipose cells store fat, muscle cells are responsible for movement and contraction, and skin cells provide a protective barrier.

Consider the energy demands of each cell type: Muscle cells have high energy demands due to their role in movement and contraction, which requires a significant amount of ATP.

Relate energy demands to oxygen consumption: Since muscle cells require more ATP, they also require more oxygen to produce this ATP through cellular respiration.

Conclude that muscle cells have the highest rate of oxygen consumption during cellular respiration due to their high energy demands and active role in movement.
