1) Ribosomes - This is the correct answer.
Ribosomes are very small structures that consist of RNA and proteins. Some ribosomes are fixed, i.e., bound to the endoplasmic reticulum. Other ribosomes are free and scattered within the cytoplasm. They function in protein synthesis.
2) Mitochondria - This is the correct answer.
Mitochondria are oval organelles bound by a double membrane with inner folds enclosing important metabolic enzymes. They produce nearly all (95%) of the ATP and energy production required by the cell.
