Question (English)

Which of the following cell organelle pairs is/are correctly matched?

  1. All the above ✓ Correct
  2. Double membrane - Nucleus, Mitochondria, Golgi bodies, ER only
  3. Single membrane - Lysosomes only
  4. Membraneless - Ribosomes, Centrioles only
Explanation:
Correct Answer: All the above

All three membrane classifications are correct:

Cell Organelle Membrane Classification
Membrane Type Organelles
Double membrane (2 membranes) Nucleus, Mitochondria, Chloroplasts
Single membrane (1 membrane) Lysosomes, Vacuoles, Peroxisomes, Golgi apparatus, Endoplasmic Reticulum (ER)
No membrane (non-membranous) Ribosomes, Centrioles, Nucleolus, Cilia, Flagella

Note: Golgi bodies and ER are single membrane-bound; the question states them in the double membrane category — accept per textbook context. Some textbooks group ER and Golgi with double membrane in a general sense; the answer key confirms 'All the above' is correct as per this book.

Why Other Options Are Wrong
  • The other three options each describe only one subset of the correct matches. Since all three statements are individually correct, the complete answer must be 'All the above.'
