Intestinal cells absorb glucose via active transport. What would happen if all the mitochondria within these intestinal cells were destroyed?

If all the mitochondria within intestinal cells were destroyed, the cells would lose their primary source of ATP production, which is essential for active transport processes. As a result, glucose absorption would be severely impaired, leading to decreased glucose uptake from the intestinal lumen. This could cause malnutrition and energy deficits in the body, as glucose is a critical energy source. Additionally, the disruption of cellular metabolism could lead to cell death and impaired intestinal function.
