Answer:

Due to the destruction of mitochondria found in a plant the plant will lose the tendency to generate energy.

Step-by-step explanation:

The mitochondria are considered as the powerhouses of the cell. They are the organelles, which functions like a digestive system that consumes nutrients, dissociates them apart, and produces energy-rich molecules in return for the cell. The biochemical procedures of the cell are called cellular respiration. The prime activity of mitochondria is to generate the energy currency of the cell, known as ATP.
