Organ.
Explanation:
Let's look into what exactly is an organelle.
An organelle is a structure that performs a specific task within a cell. A cell is not limited to just one organelle, but a variety of organelles.
Each cell varies to what organelles they possess. For example, plant cells have organelles that animal cells don't have (and vice versa).
Also to mention how some specialized cells may possess more of a certain organelles.
If we were to compare a cell to an animal, then we can compare an organelle to an organ.
We can make this comparison because an organ functions like an organelle in many ways (all listed above but for organs).
Therefore, a suitable analogy for a cell's organelle would be an animal's organ.
Hope this helps :)
