Solution

The correct option is B Lysosomes
Lysosomes are small vesicles of different shapes containing some digestive enzymes. These enzymes destroy and digest foreign substance around them.
Many damaged cells are rapidly destroyed or dissolved by their own lysosomes and hence these are called suicide bags of the cell.
