Solution

The correct option is C c. Lysosome

C)

Lysosomes are membrane-enclosed organelles that contain an array of enzymes capable of breaking down all types of biological polymers. One of its functions is to digest materials taken up from outside the cell. That process is called endocytosis. That's why it is called the SUICIDAL BAG of the cell.
