Which of the following explains why the likelihood of survival is low for a fetus born before 32 weeks?
the fetus does not have fully developed lungs.
the fetus cannot control its own body functions.
the fetus is not able to store its own nutrients.
the fetus has not undergone neurulation.

I believe the answer would be A) the fetus does not have fully developed lungs. When a baby is born at 32 weeks or less, there is a higher chance of the baby being born with respiratory problems because of the lungs being premature. Hope this helped!

Mitochondria produce atp, a high energy compound. atp is used for all sorts of enzyme-mediated reactions, such as making proteins/nucleotides/etc, certain compounds cross the cell membrane, muscles move, etc.  without this source of energy, a cell will die. it will not be able to repair itself, defend against pathogens, etc.
