NEET BIOLOGYCell : The Unit of Life Easy

Question

Which of the following pair of organelles does not contain DNA?

A

Nuclear envelope and Mitochondria

B

Mitochondria and Lysosomes

C

Chloroplast and Vacuoles

D

Lysosomes and vacuoles

Step-by-Step Solution

Mitochondria possess a single circular DNA molecule , and Chloroplasts contain small, double-stranded circular DNA molecules . The Nucleus also contains DNA . Lysosomes and Vacuoles are part of the endomembrane system and are described as containing enzymes and water/sap respectively, without any mention of possessing their own DNA . Therefore, the pair Lysosomes and Vacuoles does not contain DNA.

Exam Context & Concepts Covered

This question aligns with the NEET BIOLOGY syllabus, specifically targeting concepts from Cell : The Unit of Life . Mastering this topic is crucial for scoring well in the upcoming medical entrance examinations. Solving conceptually related problems will help you understand the nuances of these concepts and improve your problem-solving speed.
