Specialized structures that work together inside a cell are called
A
organelles
B
prokaryotes
C
eukaryotes
D
nuclei
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Organelles are specialized structures that perform various jobs inside cells. The term literally means “little organs.” In the same way organs, such as the heart, liver, stomach, and kidneys, serve specific functions to keep an organism alive, organelles serve specific functions to keep a cell alive.

Detailed explanation-2: -Organelles. Organelles are specialized structures that perform various tasks inside cells.

Detailed explanation-3: -Golgi apparatus (or, Golgi body) Cytoskeleton. Smooth endoplasmic reticulum. Mitochondrion.

Detailed explanation-4: -The major and extremely significant difference between prokaryotes and eukaryotes is that eukaryotic cells contain membrane-bounded compartments in which specific metabolic activities take place, and have small specialized structures called organelles that are dedicated to performing certain specific functions.

Detailed explanation-5: -Organelles are also called vesicles within a cell. And they really have a function that’s important, because we need to compartmentalize all the functions within the cell. So there needs to be a membrane around the mechanisms for making a different product within a cell. So really, organelles are all membrane-bound.
