A
Nucleus
B
Ribosomes
C
Organelles
D
Vacuoles
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Cytoplasmic organelles are “little organs” that are suspended in the cytoplasm of the cell. Each type of organelle has a definite structure and a specific role in the function of the cell. Examples of cytoplasmic organelles are mitochondrion, ribosomes, endoplasmic reticulum, golgi apparatus, and lysosomes.

Detailed explanation-2: -Floating around in the cytoplasm are small structures called organelles. Like the organs in your own body, each one carries out a specific function necessary for the cell to survive.

Detailed explanation-3: -Some of the most important organelles that cytoplasm contains are the ribosomes, mitochondria, proteins, the endoplasmic reticulum, lysosomes, and the the Golgi apparatus. The mitochondria are areas of ‘energy-making’, because they contain the materials necessary for ATP synthesis, or the fueling of the cell.

Detailed explanation-4: -Final answer: The cytoplasm of a cell has many tiny structures in it called organelles.

Detailed explanation-5: -Cells have many parts, each with a different function. Some of these parts, called organelles, are specialized structures that perform certain tasks within the cell.
