Solution
The correct option is D Mitochondria
Mitochondria in animal cell and mitochondria and chloroplast in plant cell both are semi-autonomous organelles. They both contain there own DNA and ribosome. Extranuclear inheritance or cytoplasmic inheritance is the transmission of genes that occur outside the nucleus. It is found in most eukaryotes and is commonly known to occur in cytoplasmic organelles such as mitochondria and chloroplasts or from cellular parasites like viruses or bacteria. In sexual reproduction, mitochondria (carrier of cytoplasmic genes) are normally inherited exclusively from the mother.
