Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Organelles are defined as membrane-bound structures within cells that perform specific functions. Ribosomes, which are responsible for protein synthesis, are membrane-bound structures and are therefore considered organelles. DNA, transport proteins, plasma membrane, and flagella are all important cellular components but they are not considered organelles.
