What else can I help you with?
Organ that produces enzymes?
The pancreas is an organ that produces enzymes essential for digesting fats, proteins, and carbohydrates. These enzymes are released into the small intestine to aid in the breakdown of food molecules for absorption.
Small bodies in the cytoplasm that contain enzymes that enhance the breakdown of cellular components?
The lysosome will expel all of its enzymes directly into the cytoplasm of the cell to destroy the cell and its organelles.
What do you call an organelle in the cell cytoplasm that has its own DNA and produces enzymes for energy metabolism?
mitochondria
The expulsion of lysosome enzymes into cell cytoplasm is known as what?
The expulsion of lysosome enzymes into the cell cytoplasm is known as lysosome leakage. This can occur due to lysosome damage, leading to release of enzymes that can potentially damage other cellular components and even trigger cell death pathways.
Not all of the wastes that a cell produces must be transported out of the cell. Some of the wastes can be broken down by enzymes produced by a cell organelle. Which of the following organelles is invo?
lysosomes
What cell structure produces enzymes in the pancreas?
While the pancreas produces insulin, insulin is a hormone not a digestive enzyme. The enzymes secreted by the pancreas are proteases, lipase, trypsin and amylase.
Do prokaryotes have hydrolytic enzymes and If so where?
Yes, prokaryotes have hydrolytic enzymes. These enzymes are usually found in organelles called lysosomes or inclusions within the cytoplasm of the prokaryotic cell. They help in breaking down large molecules into smaller components that can be utilized by the cell.
What is found inside lysosomes?
Lysosomes are like the "garbage collectors" in a cell. They collect all of the wastes that the cell does not use and they get rid of them, either by excreting them or breaking them down.
What is the main function a lysosomes?
A lysosome is a membrane-bound vesicle filled with digestive enzymes that can break down worn-out cell components or materials brought into the cell
Which cell component is capable of cellular autodigestion when it is released during cell injury?
Lysosomes are the cell components responsible for cellular autodigestion when they are released during cell injury. These organelles contain digestive enzymes that can break down various biomolecules. When lysosomes rupture, their enzymes can leak into the cytoplasm, leading to the degradation of cellular components and ultimately contributing to cell death. This process is often associated with conditions like necrosis.
Isolation of enzymes from sub cellular organisms?
Enzymes can be isolated from subcellular organisms by disrupting the cell membrane to release the enzymes, followed by centrifugation to separate the cell components. Further purification steps like chromatography can be used to isolate and purify specific enzymes of interest. Special care must be taken to maintain the stability and activity of the enzymes during isolation.
Autolysis or self-destruction of cells would be caused by an enzyme called?
Autolysis is caused by enzymes known as autolytic enzymes, such as lysosomal enzymes, that break down cellular components. These enzymes are released when cells are damaged or die, leading to the breakdown of cell membranes and organelles.
