Solution

The correct option is B

Mitochondria


The organelle depicted in the given image is a mitochondrion. It is a double-membraned organelle with its own genetic material. Since it is involved in the production of energy-rich ATP molecules by oxidation of carbon compounds, it is also known as 'the powerhouse of the cell'. Organelle can be identified by the presence of ATP synthesising molecules and folds in the inner membrane.
