Which of the following is double membranous organelle?

Correct answer: D. All A, B, C

  • A. Nucleus
  • B. Mitochondria
  • C. Chloroplast
  • D. All A, B, C

Explanation

The correct answer is Option D: All A, B, C. The nucleus, mitochondria, and chloroplasts are organelles that each have a double membrane structure. The nucleus is encased in a nuclear envelope, the mitochondria have an outer membrane and a highly folded inner membrane called cristae, and the chloroplasts contain thylakoid membranes within a double membrane. Each plays a vital role in cellular function: the nucleus for genetic information storage, mitochondria for energy production, and chloroplasts for photosynthesis in plants. Options A, B, and C individually highlight these organelles, but only Option D correctly acknowledges that all three are double membranous.
