A. Organelle Y creates sugar and oxygen, which organelle Z uses to release energy

This statement best describes how organelles Y and Z work together to maintain homeostasis in the cell. Organelle Y likely represents the chloroplast, which creates sugar through photosynthesis, while organelle Z likely represents the mitochondria, which uses that sugar (and oxygen) to produce energy in the form of ATP through cellular respiration. This process helps to maintain a balance of energy and nutrients within the cell, contributing to overall homeostasis.
