Without mitochondria your cell wouldn't be able to breakdown sugar. So you would have high levels of sugar in your body which may lead to Diabetes. If you get diabetes you will need to treat it with insulin which will help cells absorb the sugar. Insulin is like a key to opening the cell to help sugar go in. If this is not treated it leads to more complications such as heart problems. EX: hypertension or problems with skin not healing properly or even in later stages kidney problems that can lead to dialysis if this is not treated you can die. This all starts with problems without the mitochondria in your cells.

∙ 15y agoAdenosine triphosphate also known as ATP is a main source of energy for many chemical reactions within the cell. Usually the reaction of removing a phophate group from ATP (known as hydrolyzing ATP to ADP) is coupled with another reaction to provide energy for that reaction to occur. Overall many enzymes and reactions rely on ATP to proceed.

What molecule is used as cells as an energy source?
ATP (adenosine triphosphate), or ultimately it would be glucose.
What is the energy storage molecule produced by photosynthesis?
My guess would be ATP (short for Adenosine triphosphate) and NADPH
What are energy sources that cells use?
Chemical energy that is contained in and transported by the molecule called Adenosine Tri Phosphate.
What would happen if you didnt have any veins?
Death.
What would happen of we didn't have lactase?
if we didnt have lactase we would all be dead
What happen to the amoeba if a metabolic inhibitor is added to a water?
It would stop the production of ATP(adenosine triphosphate). Without energy, the contractile v
What would an organism use for quick energy?
Adenosine-5'-triphosphate (ATP)
What molecule is used as cells as an energy source?
ATP (adenosine triphosphate), or ultimately it would be glucose.
What molecule is used by cells as an energy source?
ATP (adenosine triphosphate), or ultimately it would be glucose.
Is glucose part of adenosine diphosphate?
Animals use the energy released in the breakdown of glucose and other molecules to convert adenosine diphosphate to ATP (Adenosine triphosphate).
What is the energy storage molecule produced by photosynthesis?
My guess would be ATP (short for Adenosine triphosphate) and NADPH
What produces ATP by blinding phosphate groups to ADP?
ADP is exactly the same as ATP except that ATP has one more phosphate group. (ATP=Adenosine Triphosphate, ADP=Adenosine Diphosphate) This means that adding a phosphate group to ADP would make it ATP simply by definition.
What would happen if you didnt have patriotism?
nothing
