  1. A
    Lysosomes are double membraned vesicles budded off from Golgi apparatus and contain digestive enzymes.
  2. B
    Endoplasmic reticulum consists of a network of membranous tubules and helps in transport, synthesis and secretion.
  3. C
    Leucoplasts are bound by two membranes, lack pigment but contain their own DNA and protein synthesizing machinery.
  4. D
    Sphaerosomes are single membrane bound and are associated with synthesis and storage of lipids.

Solution & Step-by-step Explanation

Lysosomes are single-membrane (not double-membrane) vesicles that contain hydrolytic enzymes. They are indeed formed by budding from the Golgi apparatus. Options (b), (c), and (d) describe their respective organelles correctly.
