Solution

The correct option is C Lysosomes
Lysosomes are the single membrane-bounded organelle found in eukaryotic cells. It contains hydrolytic enzymes for the digestion of the cell debris, wastes, foreign particles, dead or nonfunctional organelles. IT is called as cellular garbage disposal system because it removes the wastes and dead cellular part by their digestion with the enzyme and excreted out of the cell with help of plasma membrane.
