If there is no mitochondria in the cell of an organism then there will be no energy in the cell due to the mitochondria being the power house of the cell is absent. Basically, they break down food particles in the cell and turn it into ATP for the body to use.So if there would be no mitochondria there will be no use of eating food.

What is found in eukaryotic cells but not in prokaryotic cells A Mitochondria B Golgi apparatus C Nucleus D Cell membrane?

A Mitochondria and C Nucleus. Eukaryotic cells have membrane-bound organelles like mitochondria and a nucleus, which are absent in prokaryotic cells. The Golgi apparatus and cell membrane are found in both eukaryotic and prokaryotic cells.


What is present and absent in plant and animal cell?

A cell wall, chloroplast and large vacuole are present in plant cell. Whereas, Golgi body and grana are present in animal cell. A cell wall is absent in animal cells and Golgi Bodies are absent in plant cells.


Are mitochondrion found in bacteria?

No, mitochondria are not found in bacteria. Mitochondria are membrane-bound organelles found in eukaryotic cells and are responsible for generating energy in the form of ATP through cellular respiration. Bacteria generate energy through other means, such as through their plasma membrane.


What happens to the lac operon when lactose is absent?

When lactose is absent, the lac operon is typically turned off or repressed. This means that the genes involved in lactose metabolism are not actively transcribed and the production of the necessary enzymes is halted.


What are some analogies for mitochondrion?

In plants, algae, and some eukaryotic cells, the CHLOROPLASTS are analogous in function and structure to Mitochondria. CHLOROPLASTS have a second internal membrane, their own genome, and their own ribosomes. However, they are larger than mitochondria, have a uniform membrane, smooth oval shape, and contain thylakoids, which are absent in mitochondria.
