If the temperature drops below the minimum, chemical reactions and metabolism slow down, no ATP is generated, and the cell ceases to grow and dies.
Si la temperatura desciende por debajo del mínimo, las reacciones químicas y el metabolismo se ralentizan, no se genera ATP, y la célula deja de crecer y muere.
