Solution

The correct option is D Mitochondria
Mitochondria are the cell organelles responsible for aerobic respiration. Enzymes of Kreb's cycle are present in the matrix of mitochondria. Succinate dehydrogenase is membrane bound and is present on the inner mitochondrial membrane. The electron transport chain is present on the inner mitochondrial membrane. Hence, mitochondria are rich in catabolic enzymes.
