The correct answer is: B. the lysosomes.

Lysosomes are single-membrane organelles found in eukaryotic cells. Lysosomes are specialized vesicles created in the rough endoplasmic reticulum (rER) with a variety of enzymes inside it. Their function is digestion: of the food or of the cell when it dies and that function is performed via enzymes.
