Solution
The correct option is D 4
Lysosomes show polymorphism because of its different shapes and functions such as1. Primary lysosomes or proto-lysosomes are newly formed lysosomes.2. Heterolysosomes or digestive phagosomes are formed by fusion between primary lysosome and phagosome.
3. Residual lysosomes are lysosomes having undigested materials
4. Autophagic vacuoles perform autophagy or autolysis of degenerate and useless parts.
Thus, in all four different types of lysosomes are expected in an animal cell. Digestive vacuoles, autophagic vacuoles and residual vacuoles are together called as secondary lysosomes.
