Correct:
B
Explanation
The correct matching of cell organelles to their functions is as follows:
- Mitochondria (A-4): Known as the 'powerhouse of the cell', they are the primary site for cellular respiration and ATP production.
- Cytoskeleton (B-1): A network of protein fibers (microtubules and microfilaments) responsible for the maintenance of cell shape and internal organization.
- Smooth ER (C-2): The Smooth Endoplasmic Reticulum is involved in lipid synthesis and is specifically responsible for the detoxification of drugs and poisons in liver cells.
- Vacuoles (D-3): In plant cells, large central vacuoles are essential for the storage of chemicals and maintaining turgor pressure, which facilitates cell enlargement.
Matching these pairs leads to the sequence 4-1-2-3, which corresponds to Option B.
