Solution

The correct option is B Disruption of mitochondria yields membrane fragments, which are able to synthesise ATP
Mitochondria is a double membrane bound structure divided into outer and inner membrane. The two membranes have their own specific enzymes along with circular DNA , a few RNA molecules and ribosomes required for the protein synthesis. They are the sites of aerobic respiration as their membrane fragments involved in ATP production. Hence they are called "power house of the cell" .
So, the correct option is 'Option B' .
