You have been exposed to the flu virus, which is easily able to enter a cell because it disguises itself and is not recognized by the cell as an invader. Which of the following describes how the organelles of a cell might work together in a way that helps the virus?

A. Because the virus disguises itself, the cell membrane allows it to enter the cell, the mitochondria provides energy, and the nucleus directs the organelles to make the parts the virus needs.

B. Because the virus disguises itself, the cell membrane allows it to enter the cell, the mitochondria provides food, and the nucleus provides the energy to help the virus.

C. Because the virus disguises itself, the cell wall allows it to enter the cell, the mitochondria provides energy, and the nucleus directs the organelles to make the parts the virus needs.

D. Because the virus disguises itself, the cell wall allows it to enter the cell, the mitochondria and the chloroplast work together to provide energy to help the virus.
