I asked a teacher about how low score you could get on an essay if you handed it in (like I asked how many points you would get for just handing in an essay, a bad one but handed in) and I know feel really bad for asking that because I only asked to be sure that it was no risk that I would get 0 points but now realized it made me seem like I didn’t care about the subject. Should i apologize and how then?

I don’t think it makes you seem like you don’t care.  Be specific when talking to your teacher to say that you are struggling and seek extra help.  Every student gets something if they hand the assignment in.  The only way students get a zero in my class is if they don’t hand their work in or if their work is plagiarized.
