Correct Answer: Lysosomes


Solution : The correct answer is Lysosomes.

Lysosomes are referred to be the "suicide bags" or "atom bombs" of the cell. They are membrane-bound organelles that contain a range of digestive enzymes capable of breaking down various biological substances including as proteins, carbohydrates, lipids, and nucleic acids. By digesting worn-out or damaged organelles and other cellular detritus, lysosomes help to maintain the cell clean and healthy.
