Solution
The correct option is B Erythrocytes Mitochondria are large double-membrane bound cell organelles found in all eukaryotic cells. They take part in aerobic respiration and synthesize ATP with the help of the process of oxidative phosphorylation. Mitochondria are absent from anaerobic cells and red blood corpuscles (RBC) or erythrocyte. The RBC derive their energy from the anaerobic process of glycolysis. Erythrocytes are the devoid of any organelle to accommodate a large amount of haemoglobin.
