Three of the following statements regarding cell organelles are correct while one is wrong. Which one is wrong.

A

Endoplasmic reticulum consists of a network of membranous tubules and helps in transport, synthesis and secretion.

B

Leucoplasts are bound by two membranes, lack pigment but contain their own DNA and protein synthesizing machinery.

C

Spherosomes are single membrane bound and are associated with synthesis and storage of lipids.

D

Lysosomes are single membrane vessicles budded off from ER and contain oxidative enzymes

The correct Answer is:
To determine which of the four statements regarding cell organelles is incorrect, we will analyze each statement one by one. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Statement 1: Endoplasmic Reticulum (ER)** - The endoplasmic reticulum consists of a network of membranous tubules and is involved in transport, synthesis, and secretion processes. - **Analysis**: This statement is correct. The ER can be smooth (SER) or rough (RER), with the RER having ribosomes for protein synthesis and the SER involved in lipid synthesis. 2. **Statement 2: Leukoplasts** - Leukoplasts are bound by two membranes, lack pigment, but contain their own DNA and protein-synthesizing machinery. - **Analysis**: This statement is also correct. Leukoplasts are indeed colorless plastids that store starch and have their own DNA and ribosomes. 3. **Statement 3: Spherosomes** - Spherosomes are single membrane-bound organelles associated with the synthesis and storage of lipids. - **Analysis**: This statement is correct. Spherosomes are involved in lipid metabolism and storage. 4. **Statement 4: Lysosomes** - Lysosomes are single membrane vesicles budded off from the ER and contain oxidative enzymes. - **Analysis**: This statement is incorrect. Lysosomes are single membrane vesicles but are budded off from the Golgi apparatus, not the ER. Furthermore, they contain digestive (hydrolytic) enzymes, not oxidative enzymes. ### Conclusion: The incorrect statement is: **"Lysosomes are single membrane vesicles budded off from the ER and contain oxidative enzymes."**
