What does the lysosomes do for a plant cell?
Lysosomes are organelles that contain digestive enzymes. for the plant they digest excess or worn out organelles, food particles, and engulfed bacteria or viruses.

What cellular organelle is especially abundant in phagocyte white blood cells?
Phagocytic white blood cells contain a large number of lysosomes. These organelles contain enzymes that break down waste and cellular debris - which is why phagocytes (which engulf and digest things) contain many lysosomes.
Which organelles outside the cell nucleus contain genetic information?
Both the mitochondria and chloroplasts (in plants) of eukaryotic cells contain their own genetic information. This is leftover from what is thought to be a symbiosis in early eukaryotic cells. It is assumed that these organelles were originally completely separate organisms, which found their way into larger organisms' cells due to the advantageous symbiotic relationship they could offer each other. Having compartments in cells turned out to be a massive evolutionary advantage, as it meant more complex, more specialised and more efficient reactions could take place in different organelles, where the conditions could be varied to suit the enzymes. Although much of the DNA (genetic material) that was originally in these organelles has now found its way into the host cell's nucleus with the rest of the cell's DNA, there is some still left in the organelles. Indeed, they still produce a few proteins themselves using this genetic material, but they also require the other proteins that are synthesised in the rest of the eukaryotic cell.
What is cytosol and does it contain?
Cytosol is the fluid portion of the cytoplasm surrounding the organelles. Cytosol does not actually contain organelles.

Can you name the 2 organelles that contain their own genetic material?
mitochondria and lysosomes
Do lysosomes carry on cellular respiration?
Lysosomes DO in fact recycle other organelles. When the organelles die off the lysosomes recycle them into raw material so they can be used to re-build other organelles. This is a very basic answer, but I hope it helps
2 organelles that contain thereown genetic material?
Chloroplasts in plant cells and mitochondria in animal cells contain their own mitochondria
What is the two organelles that contain their own genetic material?
Mitochondria and chloroplasts. The question asks for organelles with their OWN genetic material. The material from the nucleus already belongs to the cell. Those two evolved from symbiotic prokaryotes and maintain their own DNA.

Do some cells contain organelles but not others?
Almost all cells contain organelles, but there are some which do not. Red blood cells do not contain organelles, they only contain hemoglobin.
What organelles have silicon?
Organelles don't contain silicon.
What is the living material inside cells?
Organelles. They are like any living part of the cell. Organelles such as the mitochondrion, the vacuole, and the cytoplasm, things like that.
