A
Only 3
💡 Explanation:
  1. Rough endoplasmic reticulum is specialised in synthesising proteins.
  2. Some of the enzymes have been located in mitochondria which help in the synthesis of lipids like lecithin from fatty acids and glycerol.
  3. Chloroplast stroma contains enzymes for conversion of carbon dioxide into carbohydrates. Lysosomes help in intracellular digestion of food particles.
