What is the location of lysosomes in a cell?
AnswerIt is located at the periphery of the cell near the Golgi.
Are lysosomes found in animals plants or both?

Lysosomes are responsible for?
digestion of organic matter inside the cell
Are lysosomes prokaryotic?
No, it's found in a eukaryotic cell.
In which part of the body lysosomes are found abundantly?
leucocytes
What is the location of lysosomes in a cell?
AnswerIt is located at the periphery of the cell near the Golgi.
Are lysosomes found in eukaryotes?
Yes, eukaryotic cells have lysosomes.
Are lysosomes found in animals plants or both?
Yes, they are found in both plant and animal cells.
Sac of digestive enzymes?
A lysosome is a sac of digestive enzymes, used to break down monosaccharaides and disaccharides. Lysosomes are found in animal cells and are also called suicide sacs.
How are chloroplast and Lysosomes related?
They aren't. Chloroplast is found strictly in plant cells and Lysosomes are found strictly in animal cells.
Do lysosomes produce steroid hormones?
Lysosomes do not produce steroid hormones. Lysosomes are organelles in cells that break down waste materials and debris inside the cell.
Are lysosomes membrane-bound organelles that contain powerful enzymes found in cells?
lysosomes
What can not be found in plants?
Centrioles and Lysosomes
Are lysosomes unique to neurons?
No, lysosomes are not unique to neurons. They are found in many types of animal cells.
Why are lysosomes found more often in animal cells?
# why do blood cells have so many lysosomes?
Why are lysosomes frequently found near the Golgi apparatus?
because lysosomes are produced by golgi apparatus. so they are found near the golgi apparatus.
Are lysosome found in both animal and plant cells?
Lysosomes are found in both plant and animal cells.
