Answer C. Mitochondrion

The mitochondrion is called the "powerhouse of the cell" because it generates ATP (energy) through cellular respiration. The nucleus controls cell activities, ribosomes make proteins, and the Golgi apparatus packages and transports molecules

The correct answer is C. Mitochondrion.The mitochondrion is known as the "powerhouse of the cell" because it performs cellular respiration, converting nutrients into ATP (the cell's energy currency) to fuel cellular activities.the nucleus is the control center that stores DNA; the ribosome is the factory that builds proteins; and the Golgi apparatus is the post office that packages and ships those proteins to their final destinations.
