Answer:cell 9 is not missing any organelles compared to cell 1.
Cell 2 would not function normally because it lacks the mitochondria which is the powerhouse necessary for energy production & hence growth & survival.
Cells 4 & 7 lack the rough endoplasmic reticulum responsible for protein formation hence amino acids which are the building blocks of life will not be produced.
Explanation:
Answer:
1. Precambrian rocks are very old.
2. They have very few fossils.
