The fivefold discrepancy in size between the S. cerevisiae (84 kb) and mammalian (16.6 kb) mitochondrial genomes indicates the fact that there must be a great difference in their genetic organization in spite of their common function.

There are 6000 genes in yeast; 21,700 in a nematode worm; 17,000 in a fly; 25,000 in the small plant Arabidopsis; and probably 20,000 to 25,000 in mice and humans

The “introns early” hypothesis is the proposal that introns have always been an integral part of the gene.  Genes originated as interrupted structures, and those now without introns have lost them in the course of evolution.
