So they don't have quantitatively enough organels to do s respiration. But what seems to be there seems to be functional, partially functional. Other cells, as i said, are loaded with mito conjure, but when you look at them, they're morphologically abnormal. In biology, we know that structure dictates function. If the structure of the organel
