Organelles with Nucleic Acids

Steps:

• Identify nucleic acids as DNA and RNA, essential for genetic information and protein synthesis.
• Recall organelles: nucleus houses DNA; mitochondria and chloroplasts contain DNA; ribosomes have RNA.
• Eliminate options lacking these molecules, like endoplasmic reticulum or Golgi apparatus.
• Select the option listing nucleus, mitochondria, and/or ribosomes.

Why D is correct:

• D includes organelles like the nucleus and ribosomes, which by definition store DNA/RNA as genetic material.

Why the others are wrong:

• A lacks organelles with DNA or RNA, focusing on membrane-bound structures without nucleic acids.
• B omits key nucleic acid-containing organelles like the nucleus.
• C includes incorrect options, such as lysosomes, which do not contain nucleic acids.

Not enough information on exact choices A–C.

Final answer: D
