Solution

The correct option is D Mitochondria
Mitochondria contain DNA other than nucleus. Mitochondria are thought to be the parasites in the eukaryotic cells that got inside the latter as a result of the endo-symbiotic event that took place earlier in the evolution. Centriole is a small set of microtubules. Golgi apparatus is a complex of vesicles and folded membranes within the cytoplasm of most eukaryotic cells involved in secretion and intracellular transport. Lysosome is an organelle in the cytoplasm of eukaryotic cells containing degradative enzymes enclosed in a membrane.
