Correct Answer:
D. Lysosome
Correct Answer: Lysosome
Lysosomes are membrane-bound organelles that contain digestive (hydrolytic) enzymes. They break down waste materials, damaged organelles, and foreign substances inside the cell.
Why the other options are incorrect:
- Ribosomes: They synthesize proteins and are not membrane-bound.
- Golgi apparatus: It modifies and packages proteins but does not contain digestive enzymes as a structure.
- Endoplasmic reticulum: It is involved in protein and lipid synthesis, not enzyme storage.
