Answer:

B. Mitochondria

Explanation:

  • Mitochondria are known as the power house of the cell. They are the sites of cellular respiration that breaks down glucose into energy molecules such as ATP and energy storage molecules such as NADH and FADH2.
  • In this scenario, since the cell's energy levels fall and metabolism ceases, the organelle most likely affected is the mitochondria.
  • If mitochondria are affected, glucose will not be metabolized to ATP and the cell will not have sufficient energy for cellular functions.

Answer:

Charles Darwin

Explanation:

Natural selection, most famously proposed by Charles Darwin, states that when presented with an environmental challenge, some individuals in a species will develop adaptations to face these challenges. Successful individuals will be more likely to mate and their offspring will inherit these adaptive traits, and will continue to pass for generations.

In this sense, plants face the challenge of the cold. Those that adapt to the cold will survive and reproduce, those that can't adapt to the cold will die. Eventually, only plants that can tolerate the cold will survive.
