Solution

The correct option is A Ribosome
The smallest cell organelle present within a cell is ribosome (based on the surface area of the organelle).
Ribosomes are known as protein factories because they are the main site of protein synthesis (composed of nucleic acids and proteins).
So, the correct answer is 'Ribosome'.
