B
Mitochondrion
C
Golgi apparatus
D
Lysosome
Verified step by step guidance1
Identify the function of each organelle listed: Ribosome, Mitochondrion, Golgi apparatus, and Lysosome.
Recall that the Ribosome is responsible for protein synthesis, not energy conversion.
Understand that the Golgi apparatus modifies, sorts, and packages proteins and lipids, but does not produce ATP.
Know that Lysosomes contain enzymes for digestion and waste processing, not energy production.
Recognize that the Mitochondrion is the organelle where cellular respiration occurs, converting energy stored in food molecules into ATP, the cell's energy currency.
