MtDNA per cell volume

Using data in http://nar.oxfordjournals.org/content/40/20/10124.long for mtDNA copy number and Savage, Van M., et al. "Scaling of number, size, and metabolic rate of cells with body size in mammals." Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences 104.11 (2007): 4718-4723 for cell size.

For hepatocytes, two data were available for cell volume, so a uniform distribution was used for cell volume in this case. Otherwise, only single data per tissue were found, thus the denominator was treated as a constant.
