The correct Answer is:
**Step-by-Step Solution:** 1. **Understanding the Question**: The question asks which cell organelle contains destructive enzymes. We need to identify the organelle that is responsible for breaking down materials within the cell. 2. **Analyzing the Options**: - **Golgi Complex**: This organelle is primarily involved in packaging and modifying proteins and lipids. It does not contain destructive enzymes. - **Endoplasmic Reticulum (ER)**: The ER is involved in the synthesis of proteins and lipids but does not have a role in degradation or destruction of cellular components. - **Ribosome**: Ribosomes are the sites of protein synthesis. They do not contain destructive enzymes and do not participate in degradation processes. - **Lysosomes**: These are membrane-bound organelles that contain hydrolytic enzymes. They are responsible for breaking down waste materials and cellular debris. They can digest macromolecules, and they are often referred to as the "suicide bag" of the cell because they can also destroy damaged or foreign cells. 3. **Identifying the Correct Answer**: Based on the analysis, the organelle that contains destructive enzymes is the **Lysosome**. This is because lysosomes are specifically designed to break down waste and foreign substances in the cell. 4. **Conclusion**: Therefore, the correct answer to the question is **Lysosomes**. ---
