Solution

The correct option is A Mitochondria
In all multicellular organisms, the 70S ribosomes are found in mitochondria which is present in the cell of every organism including plants and animals. They are self-replicating bodies which undergo binary fission like prokaryotic cells and contains all the enzymes and proteins required for this process thus their reproduction is not tied to the reproductive cycle of the host cell. So, the correct answer is option D.
