Answer: The correct answer is B) Power plant.

Mitochondria is a specialized membrane bound organelle present in all eukaryotic cells ( like plant and animal cell). It is considered as the power house of the cell because it is the site for the synthesis of large amount of chemical energy in the form of ATP ( adenosine triphosphate) , which is also called energy currency of the cell.  ATP is thus used for driving various metabolic processes in the cell.
