If a cell's mitochondria were destroyed it would die. Mitochondria are the power houses of the cell and without energy, necessary reactions could not take place .
If a mitochondria stopped working the cell would not have its respiratory function such as to use carbon dioxide,water, and energy in which the cell needs to survive so the cell would eventually stop moving and slowly die out with no nutrience and energy.
It would no longer have its supply of O2 derived ATP. For some cells it would have little or no effect, but your brain cells would die within seconds, and your cardiac cell would fail (i.e. not be able to pump blood) in the same time frame - but they (the cells themselves) could take up to 4 hours to die. Note that if this occurred to enough cardiac cells that you would have died - even though the heart was still "alive" ... for a little while.
It will not get energy. Functions of cells would be stopped
they produce energy for cell. So it will malfunction or die
We would die. Fairly quickly. Modern medical science would not be able to save anyone.
You would expect to find a large number of mitochondria in an eukaryotic cell that needs to produce a large amount of ATP. Mitochondria are the powerhouses of the cell and are responsible for producing ATP through cellular respiration. They are abundant in cells with high energy demands, such as muscle cells.
the cell would not produce enough energy
It would cease to exist. The mitochondria are the power plants.

answer tf question
A eukaryotic cell lacking mitochondria would be unable to carry out aerobic respiration, which is essential for generating ATP (energy) for the cell. Mitochondria are the main organelles responsible for this process in eukaryotic cells.
it wouldnt be able to respire, produce energy
they produce energy for cell. So it will malfunction or die
If a mitochondria is destroyed, the cell would no longer be able to produce energy in the form of ATP through aerobic respiration. This could lead to cell death or dysfunction, affecting the overall function of tissues and organs in the body.
If all the mitochondria of a cell were somehow destroyed the cell would most likely die from lack of energy/fuel to carry out its activities.
In the cytoplasm of eukaryotic cells.
the mitochondria...
Without eukaryotic cells, complex organisms would not exist as they are essential for the development of multicellular life. Eukaryotic cells have specialized organelles like the nucleus and mitochondria, crucial for functions such as DNA control and energy production. Overall, the absence of eukaryotic cells would hinder the complexity and specialized functions required for complex organisms to thrive.
you cant lose your mitochondria but if you could you would die
