Which one of the following is the correct combination of organelles and their functions?
General KnowledgeBiology
- AMitochondria - Respiration; Chloroplast - Photosynthesis; Ribosome - Protein Synthesis; Rough endoplasmic reticulum - Transport of proteins
- BMitochondria - Respiration; Chloroplast - Photosynthesis; Ribosome - Transport of proteins; Rough endoplasmic reticulum - Protein synthesis
- CMitochondria - Respiration; Chloroplast - Protein synthesis; Ribosome - Photosynthesis; Rough endoplasmic reticulum - Transport of proteins
- DMitochondria - Photosynthesis; Chloroplast - Respiration; Ribosome - Protein synthesis; Rough endoplasmic reticulum - Transport of proteins
Explanation
Every pairing in option A is correct: mitochondria carry out respiration, chloroplasts carry out photosynthesis, ribosomes synthesise proteins, and the rough endoplasmic reticulum transports proteins. The other options scramble these organelle-function pairs.
