That depends on the type of cell. If the cell is anaerobic, like many types of bacteria, then absence of oxygen does nothing to them and they go about their business. If on the other hand the cell requires oxygen, like eukaryotes, then absence of oxygen will quickly kill the cell because it is unable to perform respiration.

What happens in the body cells during repiration?
Respiration is a process of taking in oxygen and giving out of carbondioxide. The oxygen carried by the blood cells transfers oxygen to the tissues and takes up carbondioxide from the tissue.
What happens when the blood reaches cells that do not have enough oxygen?
They die because they are unable to produce energy and function. And shrink

What happens to the oxygen when it reaches the cells?
it is used in metabolic process
What happens to the blood in the body cells?
it give up oxygen to the cell.

What happens when the blood reaches tissues or cells that do not have enough oxygen?
The oxyhaemoglobin will break down and oxygen will release. :)
What happens in your muscle tissue and cells when the demand of oxygen is not met?
If the demand for oxygen is not met for a long period of time, the cells within the muscle tissue will die.
