Solution

The correct option is B Lysosomes

Lysosomes are formed by Golgi bodies. These are membrane-bounded vesicles which contain digestive and hydrolytic enzymes glycosidases, proteases and sulfatases. The enzymes are synthesized in the mRNA transcripts exit the nucleus into the cytosol, where they are translated by rough endoplasmic reticulum. The enzymes leave the Golgi apparatus as a vesicle known as lysosomes. Ribosomes help in the synthesis of protein. Mitochondria help in the formation of energy in form of ATP. Plastids have chlorophyll which helps in photosynthesis. So, the correct answer is option B.
