They would cease to exist.
Without mitochondria, higher animals will not be able to derive energy from only anaerobic respiration due to a lack of oxygen because anaerobic respiration is much less efficient than aerobic respiration which is so important for any higher animal.
Mitochondria are the power generators of a cell as they help in converting nutrients and oxygen into adenosine triphosphate (ATP) that is the chemical energy needed for carrying out all metabolic activities.
