What are inclusion bodies?
Options
- AMembrane-bound structures
- BProtein-synthesising structures
- CReserve material stored in the cytoplasm
- DGas-producing structures
Correct answer
C. Reserve material stored in the cytoplasm
Step-by-step solution
Explanation : Inclusion bodies: Reserve material in prokaryotic cells are stored in the cytoplasm in the form of inclusion bodies. These are not bound by any membrane system and lie free in the cytoplasm, e.g., phosphate granules, cyanophycean granules and glycogen granules. Gas vacuoles are found in blue green and purple and green photosynthetic bacteria.
