They frequently are. If the attack succeeds often enough, you will get sick and/or die.

What process of the cell will be disrupted if the following organelles were destroyed?

If the mitochondria were destroyed, the process of cellular respiration would be disrupted because mitochondria are responsible for producing most of the cell's ATP energy. If the endoplasmic reticulum were destroyed, protein synthesis and lipid metabolism would be affected since the ER is involved in these processes. If the lysosomes were destroyed, the cell's ability to break down waste materials and recycle old components would be impaired.


A eukaryotic cell that lacks mitochondria would be unable to carry out which essential function?

The Mitochondria are used to make ATP, or energy. Well, if the Mitochondria were to be destroyed, i would say that the cell will soon stop storing energy and probably die.Cellular respiration


What would happen to a cell if all its mitochindria were destroyed?

If all mitochondria were destroyed in a cell, the cell would not be able to produce energy through aerobic respiration. This would result in a significant decrease in the cell's ability to generate ATP, leading to impaired cellular functions and ultimately cell death.


What would happen if all the mitochondria were removed from a cell?

Without mitochondria, the cell would not be able to produce ATP through aerobic respiration, which is the main source of energy in most cells. The cell would rely on anaerobic respiration to produce limited amounts of ATP, resulting in lower energy output and potentially cell death if energy demands are not met.


What is more likely to happen when mitochondria malfunction?

When mitochondria malfunction, there can be a decrease in energy production, leading to cellular damage and even cell death. This can result in various health problems such as neurodegenerative diseases, metabolic disorders, and muscle weakness.
