Question

Which of the following organelles is correctly matched with its role in the cell?

• A. Lysosome → Suicidal bag; Golgi apparatus →Powerhouse; Mitochondria → Post office
• B. Lysosome → Suicidal bag; Golgi apparatus → Post office; Mitochondria → Powerhouse
• C. Lysosome →Post office; Golgi apparatus →Suicidal bag; Mitochondria → Powerhouse
• D. Lysosome → Powerhouse; Golgi apparatus → Post office; Mitochondria →Suicidal bag

Answer 1

The correct option is B Lysosome → Suicidal bag; Golgi apparatus → Post office; Mitochondria → Powerhouse

$\bullet$ The lysosome has various functions, including killing pathogens. It also plays a role in cell death, and hence is called a suicidal bag.
$\bullet$ Mitochondria are involved in utilising energy from food and storing it in the form of ATP. Therefore, they are called the powerhouses of the cell.
$\bullet$ The Golgi apparatus is involved in packaging and transportation. So, it is called the post office of the cell.
