Answer: Lack of energy

Explanation:

Oxygen is needed in a process known as Respiration where it is used to produce energy from glucose. This energy is what the cell uses to continue whatever functions that it carries out which are needed for the body to survive. If the cells don't get oxygen, they can't make energy and if they can't make energy, they die.

Some cells are more important than others and so will need a constant supply of oxygen. The brain for instance requires 20% of the oxygen used in the body. If the body suffers from a lack of oxygen for whatever reason, brain cells begin to die within about 4 minutes.

The brain is extremely important as it directs the body. If the cells there begin to die, the body deteriorates and the body stops engaging in certain processes due to a lack of direction from the brain. This coupled with the other cells dying around the body will lead to even more deterioration till the body dies.

kiruha [24]

B is the correct answer

A prokaryote cell has no distinct nucleus with a membrane and neither does it have other specialized organelle.

In a eukaryotic cell, the genetic material is DNA in the form of chromosomes which are found within a distinct nucleus.

Examples of prokaryotes Streptomyces soil bacteria (from which streptomycin antibiotic is derived), Escherichia coli bacterium and Streptococcus bacteria (which causes strep sore throat).

Examples of Eukaryotes include protozoa such as amoeba, fungi, plants, animals and generally all multicellular organisms.

What explanation describes the primary function of the cell in the table?

svp [43]

Answer: C) The cell can produce energy for cellular functions.

Explanation: A cell is the functional unit of all living things. Cells are made up different parts with specialized functions. Cells take in nutrients from food and convert them to energy which is needed for other cellular functions. The specialized functions of the different parts of a cell can only be carried out if sufficient energy is provided by the cell. The functions of different parts of a cell include reproduction, absorption of nutrients and removal of substances from the cell, protein synthesis but none of these functions will be carried out if energy is not supplied.
