Studies have shown that some medications can damage mitochondria. which of the following would you predict to be the most likely long-term effect on an organism with damaged mitochondria?

The organism would suffer as its cells would be less able to provide the energy needed to carry out life functions.

•there must be variation for the particular trait within a population.

•the variation must be inheritable (that is, it must be capable of being passed on from the parents to their offspring).

•individuals with one version of the trait must produce more offspring than those with a different version of the trait.good

explanation:

essentially, one bacterial cell splits into two daugurer cells. bacterial offspring don't need or get care from their parents because they are in a sense their own parents. that said, some bacteria can and do depend on other bacteria especially in harsh environments such as bacterial microfilms in hot water tanks.
