What is the generalized term for the specialized structures inside the cell?
a. organelles
b. ribosomes
c. golgi apparatus
d. eukaryotes

AN ANIMAL CELL usually consists of:  

1. Nucleus: containing DNA  

2. Mitchondria: gives energy to the cell  

3. Rough Endoplasmic Reticulum: synthesis of proteins  

4. Smooth Endoplasmic Reticulum: synthesis of lipids  

5. Golgi Complex: modification of proteins and synthesis of carbohydrates  

6. Lysosome: degrade waste products of the cell  

7. Ribosome: translation of genetic material into proteins.  

8. Plasma Membrane: separates the inside of the cell from the environment

The correct option is Organelles.

The generalized name for the specialized structures present inside a typical cell is Organelles. These are the specialized membrane bound ( made up of lipid membrane) structures present in the cells, which serve specific functions to the cell. They are also called the sub-cellular compartments of the cell.

Example of organelles- Ribosomes, Mitochondria, Endoplasmic reticulum, Lysosomes, Golgi complex.
