a) Centriole: In an organism with flagella and cilia, the position of these organelles is determined by the mother centriole which becomes the basal body.

b) Chlorophyll: Chlorophyll molecules are specially arranged in and around photosystem that is embedded in the thylakoid membrane of the chloroplast.

c) Cristae: These are folded in the inner membrane of mitochondria, which provides a large amount of surface area for chemical reaction.

d) Ribozymes (Ribonucleic acid enzymes) is an RNA molecule that is capable of catalysing the specific biochemical reaction of nucleic acids.
