Solution

The correct option is B Lysosomes
Lysosomes are the smallest cellular organelles that contain acid hydrolase enzymes that digest the waste materials and cellular debris. They can be described as the stomach of the cell. Lysosomes digest excess or worn-out organelles, food particles, and engulfed viruses or bacteria. The membrane around a lysosome allows the digestive enzymes to work at the pH they require.
