Question

Cells are able to live and perform its functions due to the presence of_________________

• A. Organelles
• B. Lysosomes
• C. Cell wall
• D. Ribosomes

Answer 1

Answer: (A)

• The cell is the basic unit of life. All the living organisms are made up of cells and each cell performs a life-sustaining process. The cell is composed of the cell membrane, cytoplasm, nucleus, cell organelles and cell wall (except animal cells). An organelle is a distinct part of a cell, which has a particular structure and function.
• Each organelle performs a particular function. For example- mitochondria produce ATPs, lysosomes digest cellular waste and debris, centrioles separates chromosomes during cell division, Ribosome synthesizes proteins, cell wall protects, etc.
• Due to this, a cell can survive and perform its own functions. Thus, the correct answer is option A.
