Solution
The correct option is D Cell division
Golgi apparatus is present in all eukaryotic cells except RBC and sieve tube elements. It is also absent in prokaryotes and sperm cells. In plants cells, Golgi apparatus consists of a number of isolated units called as dictyosome while in animal cells it occurs as single compact or loose complex. The number of Golgi bodies or dictyosomes is generally 9 - 10 in a plant cell but is very high in cells engaged in the secretory activity (example root cap cells) and rapid division. In plant cells, the number of Golgi bodies increases during cell division when these organelles secrete materials that form the cell plate, which then develops into the cell wall that separates the two new cells.
So, the correct answer is 'Cell division'
