Question
what cell organelle are responsible for providing the energy needed for cell activities?
a) chloroplasts
b) nuclei
c) mitochondria
d) ribosomes
Brief Explanations
Mitochondria are known as the "powerhouses of the cell" because they produce ATP, the primary energy currency used to fuel cellular activities. The other options do not supply energy for cell functions: ribosomes synthesize proteins, lysosomes break down waste, and the nucleus stores genetic information.
