A mutation occurs that prevents a cell from taking in the glucose that it needs for energy production. What is most likely to happen??

Cells need energy to carry out processes like mutation, reproduction and for mobility. The basic source of energy is glucose. If one factor prevents the cell from taking in the source of energy, then one possibility is the cell will weaken, unable to carry out processes and eventually will die.
