The main functions of the lysosomes is to get rid of the bacteria and virus and to digest the food particles. If the lysosomes rupture the count of thaw white blood cells will reduce because some will be consumed by the deadly viruses and bacteria.

Are use by white blood cells to digest and destroy bacteria?
I think Lysosomes.
What organelles would be found in higher frequency in stomach cells then in red blood cells?
lysosomes as they contain digestive enzymes
What do lysosomes do in white blood that cells eat bacteria?
lyse=to break lysosome is an enzyme present in white blood cells or in leucocytes which break the cell wall of bacteria
What makes red and white blood cells?
Red blood cells contain iron which makes them reddish. White blood cells contain lysosomes which are used to breakdown foreign invaders, such as pathogens in the blood stream.
What is the name of the blood cell that destroys germs in the body?
A type of cell that can destroy bacteria is called a 'Phagocyte' It contains lysosomes (Organelles containing digestive enzymes) The Phagocyte moves towards the bacteria and 'traps' the bacteria by forming a vacuole around it. Some lysosomes move towards and fuse with the vacuole. The bacteria is then digested by the enzymes contained by the lysosomes. The Breakdown products then pass into the cytoplasm of the phagocyte.
Why are lysosomes found more often in animal cells?
# why do blood cells have so many lysosomes?
1. In which type of cells would you expect there to be an abundance of lysosomes?
White blood cells contain the most lysosomes in the entire body. White blood cells need the extra lysosomes for the bacteria that they ingest.
What happens if all lysosomes in white blood cells are destroyed?
if white blood cells get destroyed the body loses it's power of defence against any infections and foreign substances.
Are use by white blood cells to digest and destroy bacteria?
I think Lysosomes.
Is the rupture of red blood cells?
HemolysisDestruction of Blood Cells: the destruction of red blood cells and the release of the hemoglobin they contain.
What occurs when red blood cells rupture?
hemotoxin
Where does lysosomes appear most in the human body?
In white blood cells
What organelles enable white blood cells to digest and destroy bacteria are?
lysosomes
What cells use lysosomes to break down food and old cells parts?
Lysosomes are organelles found in animal cells that serve to break down food and also recycle other cell parts. They are not present in blood cells.
Is muscle cell best way to study lysosomes?
no, phagocyctic white blood cells would provide the best opportunity to study lysosomes.
What organelles are very abundant within white blood cells?
White blood cells are abundant in granules(sacs containing digestive enzymes).
What cellular organelles helps White Blood Cells breakdown the bacteria and viruses?
lysosomes
