Select the alternative giving correct identification and function of the organelle 'A' in the diagram.

1. Endoplasmic reticulum - synthesis of lipids
2. Mitochondria - produce cellular energy in the form of ATP
3. Golgi body - provides packaging material
4. Lysosomes - secrete hydrolytic enzymes

Correct answer: Mitochondria - produce cellular energy in the form of ATP

Solution

Mitochondria are the organelles responsible for aerobic respiration, which generates ATP for cellular activities. Their inner membrane folds (cristae) increase surface area for energy production.
