A) mitochondria and inherited via egg cytoplasm
B) lysosomes and peroxisomes
C) golgi bodies and smooth endoplasmic reticulum
D) plastids and inherited via male gamete
Correct Answer: A
Solution :
The cytoplasm of eukaryotic cells contains organelles such as mitochondria, chloroplasts, Golgi bodies, lysosomes, peroxisomes etc. Out of these mitochondria and chloroplasts contain DNA. Genes are found on the chromosomes and chromosomes are made up of DNA and associated proteins. Thus mitochondria and chloroplasts also contain genes. During fertilization male gametes do not have sufficient amount of cytoplasm, hence, organelles, so most of the cytoplasm to the offsprings is contributed by egg itself. Hence, organelles that are present in eggs cytoplasm, also inhibit to the offsprings.
