Solution

The correct option is A Vacuole
Cell inclusions refer to the ergastic substances or deuteroplasmic or paraplasmic substances. They are nonliving substances found inside a cell. They may belong to four categories: reserve food (starch and fats), excretory substance (latex, resin, gums etc.), pigment (anthocyanin, anthoxanthin) and minerals (cystolith, raphides, crystals).
Vacuoles are non-cytoplasmic sacs, which are separated from the cytoplasm by a membrane. Vacuoles may be sap vacuole, contractile vacuole, food vacuole or a gas vacuole.
