The Golgi apparatus. It creates lysosomes.Lysosome: Lysosomes contain hydrolytic enzymes necessary for intracellular digestion. They are common in animal cells, but rare in plant cells.
Lysosomes
Lyosomes
Lysosomes are organelles that release enzymes for intracellular digestion. They contain hydrolytic enzymes that break down cellular waste and foreign materials.
In the process of intracellular digestion, lysosomes are the main organelles. Lysosomes contain enzymes that are made by cells, and their primary function is to digest things.
The organelle primarily responsible for intracellular digestion.
Lysosomes
The lysosomes perform intracellular digestion.
The main cellular structures involved in intracellular digestion are lysosomes and the Golgi apparatus. Lysosomes contain digestive enzymes that break down complex molecules, while the Golgi apparatus modifies and packages these enzymes for transport to the lysosomes. Ribosomes are responsible for protein synthesis and do not directly participate in intracellular digestion.
Lysosomes
Intracellular
The primary site of intracellular digestion are the lysosomes.
Cells can digest substances through intracellular digestion, where enzymes break down molecules inside the cell's cytoplasm, or through extracellular digestion, where enzymes are secreted outside the cell to break down larger substances before they are absorbed.
