I think the answer is Lysosome. Lysosomes are small organelles filled with enzymes that are involved in break down of lipids, carbohydrates, and proteins from food. Mitochondria use energy from food to make high energy compounds that the cell can use to power growth, development , and movement. Nucleus controls most cell processes and contain the hereditary information of DNA. Ribosomes are small particles made of RNA and functions to assemble proteins.
