Solution
The correct option is B Lysosome
Lysosomes are eukaryotic cell organelles. They are small vesicle-like bodies that contain hydrolytic enzymes for digesting foreign particles and dead organelles. They are known as suicide bags of the cell because they undergo autolysis and burst open when the cell is damaged. Thus, they digest their own cell, causing the cell to die.So, the correct option is B.
