Answer:

Meiosis is a type of cell division that reduces the number of chromosomes in the parent cell by half and produces four gamete cells. The process results in four daughter cells that are haploid, which means they contain half the number of chromosomes of the diploid parent cell.

These all are present in liver and kidney of human as well rat. In liver rapidly fructose is change to fructose 1 through fructokinase.

After it is converted into trioses dihydroxyacetone phosphate as well as glyceraldehyde through aldolase.  With glucose metabolism Fructose get synergistic effect

Nucleus: 'The control center', carries the DNA of the cell
Ribosomes: Found in all cells, their jobs are to make protein 
Endoplasmic Reticulum: The internal delivery system of the cell
Golgi complex: Transports materials throughout the cell
Lysosomes: Break down food into particles the cell can use. another function is they destroy old or dying cells 
Mitochondria: Breaks down food to make ATP 
and last but not least cytoplasm a jelly like fluid in the cell that keeps the organelles suspended
