Correct option is C

Mitochondria, often referred to as the "powerhouses" of the cell, are organelles responsible for converting nutrients into energy through cellular respiration.
This process generates adenosine triphosphate (ATP), the primary energy currency of cells, essential for powering various cellular activities.
Mitochondria play a central role in metabolism and energy production, making them indispensable for cellular function and survival.
Cell Membrane: Regulates the movement of substances in and out of cells, providing protection and structural support.
Lysosomes: Act as the waste disposal system of the cell by digesting unwanted materials within the cytoplasm.
Chromosome: Carries genetic information in the form of DNA, crucial for genetic inheritance and controlling cellular activities.
