Hi again!
Guess what the answer is A just like last time. The reason for this is air was cut so the mitochondria could not provide enough power. B doesnt make sense because the grass hopper can still waste. C also doesn’t make sense because being in a container doesn’t mean the membrane stops working.. and D well the nucleus is always running and nothing is stopping the grass hopper from thinking.
