Solution

The correct option is B Mitochondria
Mitochondria is termed as the 'power house' of a cell. It is a double membrane bound structure that can be found in most eukaryotic cells. The function of this organelle is to produce and store energy in the form of adenosine triphosphate (ATP) molecules, which are generated by using the chemical energy derived from food.
