Correct option is B
Correct Answer: (b) A - (iii), B - (i), C - (ii)
Explanation:
Matching of Cell Organelles:
- Mitochondria (A):
- Structure: Double membrane.
- Function: Known as the "powerhouse of the cell," it generates ATP through cellular respiration.
- Correct Match: (iii) Double membrane.
- Ribosome (B):
- Structure: Membraneless organelles made of RNA and proteins.
- Function: Synthesize proteins in the cell.
- Correct Match: (i) Membraneless.
- Lysosomes (C):
- Structure: Single membrane-bound organelles containing digestive enzymes.
- Function: Break down cellular waste and recycle materials.
- Correct Match: (ii) Single membrane.
Final Match:
- A - (iii)
- B - (i)
- C - (ii)
Information Booster:
● Mitochondria are the only organelles with their own DNA, allowing them to produce some of their own proteins.
● Ribosomes are found in both prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells, either free-floating or attached to the endoplasmic reticulum.
● Lysosomes play a crucial role in autophagy (self-digestion) and defense against pathogens.
● The presence or absence of membranes in organelles determines their specific functions in the cell.
● Organelles are classified based on their structure and functionality (e.g., membraneless, single membrane, or double membrane).
