Answer:

The correct answer would be the active transport across the cell membrane.

The main functions of the cell membrane are a barrier, regulates transport (passive, facilitated, and active), the presence of receptors et cetera.

Only active transport (such as sodium pump, calcium pumps et cetera) requires the input of energy (ATP) for proper functioning. It uses energy to pump substances against the concentration gradient.

Thus, only active transport would be affected if less cellular energy is available.

Write a paragraph explaining how eukaryotic cells arose from prokaryotic cells.
timurjin [86]
Cells are divided into two main classes, initially defined by whether they contain a nucleus. Prokaryotic cells (bacteria) lack a nuclear envelope; eukaryotic cells have a nucleus in which the genetic material is separated from the cytoplasm. Prokaryotic cells are generally smaller and simpler than eukaryotic cells; in addition to the absence of a nucleus, their genomes are less complex and they do not contain cytoplasmic organelles or a cytoskeleton (Table 1.1). In spite of these differences, the same basic molecular mechanisms govern the lives of both prokaryotes and eukaryotes, indicating that all present-day cells are descended from a single primordial ancestor.
