the mitochondria creates enzymes that are needed in the lysosomes to break down foreign items that enter the cell such as food or energy.

Lysosomes and mitochondria have distinct functions in a cell, but they may indirectly interact with each other. Lysosomes primarily function in intracellular digestion and waste removal, breaking down cellular waste and debris. In contrast, mitochondria are responsible for energy production through cellular respiration. While there may not be a direct functional relationship between the two organelles, lysosomes can play a role in removing damaged or dysfunctional mitochondria through a process called autophagy.

Is there any relationship between ribosomes and lysosomes?
They cannot break down all old organelles. Moreover, they accumulate and decrease the functionality of the cell.
What is the difference between primary and secondary lysosomes?
Primary lysosomes have lower levels of protons. Secondary lysosomes have high levels of protons.
What are the functional differences between chloroplasts and mitochondria?
Chloroplast are found in plant cells and use the sunlight to break down carbon dioxide and water into oxygen, glucose and water. Mitochondria is found in animal cells and breaks down glucose and oxygen into carbon dioxide, heat energy and water.
What builds up between the two membranes of the mitochondria?
Hydrogen ions build up between the two membranes of the mitochondria. The mitochondria is where cellular respiration occurs as well.
Why are mitochondria descendants of endosymbotic bacteria-like cells?
This question isn't optimally phrased. "Why" denotes a purpose, and the mitochondria became what it is today through evolution, a process that has no internal purpose, drive, or intellectual intent. That is to say, the symbiotic relationship did not evolve through negotiations between the two organisms. Endosymbiosis occurred because the relationship between the two prokaryotes was beneficial to both. Through coevolution, the two became inseparable and existence as individuals was no longer possible.
