Some medications can damage a cell's mitochondria. What would you predict to be the most likely long-term effect on an organism with damaged mitochondria?

Errors would be made during DNA replication, and the organism would be more likely to develop cancer
Nutrients taken into the cell from the surrounding environment would not be available, causing the cell to eventually waste away
Proteins would not be able to modified after being synthesized, so the organism would be unable to grow
The cell would not be able to provide enough energy to support all its necessary functions causing it to die
