Cell membrane, nucleus,cytoplasm

Answer 2

cell membrane, cytoplasm and mitochondria

Cytoplasm works in plant cells much like it does in animal cells. It provides support to the internal structures, is the suspension medium for the organelles and maintains the shape of a cell.

The cell membrane controls the movement of substances in and out of cells and organelles.

The main job of mitochondria is to perform cellular respiration. This means it takes in nutrients from the cell, breaks it down, and turns it into energy.
