Solution
The correct option is D Detoxification of drugs
Ephagy is known as cell vomiting. It mainly takes place during cell secretion, cell excretion etc. Autolysis is cell digestion which is mainly self-digestion. Heterophagosome is a cell vacuole formed in the cytoplasm by phagocytosis or pinocytosis. Lysosomes also called as suicidal bags are the structures which contain enzymes to digest other substances including damaged cells. It helps in ephagy, autolysis and formation of heterophagosome.
Detoxification of drugs is done by smooth endoplasmic reticulum.
So, the correct answer is 'Detoxification of drugs'.
