Question

Which of the following is present in cell vacuoles?

• A. DNA
• B. Hydrolytic enzymes
• C. Latex of the rubber plant
• D. Anthocyanins of the flowers

Answer 1

The correct option is A DNA

A cell vacuole is a membrane-bound (tonoplast) organelle present in cells.

It forms an enclosed compartment within the cell which are filled with water, dissolved inorganic and organic molecules (enzymes)

They contain hydrolytic enzymes for breaking down the macromolecules (proteins, nucleic acids etc.).

Anthocyanin is stored in the vacuoles (flowers and fruits).

It does not possess its own DNA as the mitochondria and chloroplasts.

So, the correct answer is 'DNA'.
