Solution

The correct option is D Golgi complex
The acrosome is an organelle that develops over the anterior half of the head in the spermatozoa (sperm cells) of many animals. It is a cap-like structure derived from the Golgi apparatus. The acrosome of sperm helps in penetration of sperm into the ovum. The acrosome carries hyaluronidase enzyme for penetration of egg.
So, the correct answer is 'Golgi complex'.
