Solution
The correct option is C Mitochondria
Energy releasing reaction in a cell occurs in the mitochondria.
The mitochondria is a double-membraned cell organelle, known as the powerhouse of the cell which is present in all eukaryotic cells.
The inner membrane of the mitochondria is the site of the electron transport chain (aerobic respiration) therefore, consists of respiratory chain enzymes.
The enzyme ATP synthase is embedded in the inner mitochondrial membrane helps in the synthesis of ATP molecule (energy currency of the cell).
