Answer:

D. This organelle is composed of two membranes,reactions inside it release energy that can be used for cell processes

Step-by-step explanation:

The image attached to this question represents a CELL, which consists of structures that performs specific functions called ORGANELLES. The organelle labelled B in particular is called a MITOCHONDRION. A mitochondrion is a double-membraned organelle i.e. it structurally has two membranes.

The mitochondrion is functionally the organelle where cellular respiration, which involves the synthesis of energy for the cell's metabolic activities, takes place. Hence, the statement that correctly differentiates between the structure and function of organelle B is: This organelle is composed of two membranes,reactions inside it release energy that can be used for cell processes
