Yes it is
What organnelle contains material that has been phagocytized through the oral groove and is to be digested?
food vacuole

The mitochondria generates ATP by means of oxidative phosphorylation.
Does each cell make proteins?
Yes. The organnelle that produces it is called a "ribosome" it is attached to the endoplasmic reticulum.
What has a specific role in a cell?
These diagrams explain it super simply: http://peer.tamu.edu/curriculum_modules/cell_Biology/module_1/Organnelle%20summary.jpg and a little more complex: http://img.docstoccdn.com/thumb/orig/5626222.png
What organelle does cellular respiration take place in?
MITOCONDRION
What occurs when the immune system mounts a significant attack against the donated tissue?
The body triggers an immune reaction in response to a transplanted organ, since the recipient's body does not recognise the organ as part of itself. i.e the DNA of the transplanted organ, and the DNA of the person do not match (unless they are identical twins); the recipient's immune system reacts against the new DNA and attempts to 'kill it off'; similar to how the human immune system reacts to cold and 'flu virus' (which are made of something called RNA, not DNA) . This response is called "organ rejection"- the patient's body rejects the transplanted organ. Organ rejection is usually preventable by taking a type of drug called an "immunosuppressant".
