At A doctor is looking at a patient's blood under a

microscope. She notices several cells with

malfunctioning mitochondria. Why is this

important? Check all that apply.

Because unhealthy cells can lead to

unhealthy tissue and organs.

Because mitochondria carry oxygen around

the body.

Because unhealthy cells usually form healthy

tissue and organs.

Because malfunctioning organelles can lead

to diseased tissue.

- Because unhealthy cells can lead to

unhealthy tissue and organs.

- Because malfunctioning organelles can lead to diseased tissue.

Explanation:

Cells are the basic and fundamental unit of life. In the organization of life, cells are the precursors of tissues. This means that a collection of cells with similar function gives TISSUES, which subsequently gives rise to ORGANS. Also, organelles are structures with specific function within the cell. A faulty organelle will result in a faulty cell, thereby, affecting the other levels of organizations.

According to this question, a doctor is looking at a patients blood under a microscope where she notices several cells with malfunctioning mitochondria. This is important because:

- Unhealthy cells can lead to unhealthy tissue and organs.

- Malfunctioning organelles in a cell can lead to a deficient cell, which in turn can lead to a diseased tissue.

A and D

Because unhealthy cells can lead to unhealthy tissue and organs.

Because malfunctioning organelles can lead to diseased tissue.

Explanation:

I have the two green check, other answer is "The cells that make the lung tissue have mutated DNA"

option c is the correct answer.
