A is correct.
Mitochondria are membrane-bound (double-membrane) organelles found in eukaryotic cells that generate most of the cell's ATP by oxidative phosphorylation. The other options are incorrect: B mischaracterizes their structure and function, C wrongly states they occur in prokaryotes, and D is misleading (mitochondria have some protein synthesis capacity but their main role is energy production).
