Answer :

The cell organelle which has similar function as integumentary system is cell membrane. Thus, option A  is correct.

Cell is defined as the base of life as it is the structural as well as functional unit of life. Cell is made up of pre existing cells and the cell contain various cell organelles such as mitochondria, endoplasmic reticulum, ribosomes, golgi appratus, nucleus, and cytoplasm.

Basically, cell is of two type one in prokaryotic and another one is eukaryotic. The prokaryotic cell is known as pre mature cells as they do not contain cell organelles and eukaryotic cell are known as advanced and developed cells as they contain several cell organelles.

The unicellular animals are made up of single cell and all the functions carried out in a single cell like amoeba and multicellular organisms are made up of multiple cells and there is specific cell for specific functions.
