What part of the cell digests protein?
The lysosome is the part of the cell that digests injured cells. The lysosome is a membrane bound cell organelle that is found in all animal cells.
Does lysosome have small organelles that make protein?
No, lysosomes are organelles that contain enzymes responsible for breaking down waste materials and cellular debris. They do not have the machinery for protein synthesis. Protein synthesis occurs mainly in the ribosomes, endoplasmic reticulum, and Golgi apparatus of a cell.
What is the name of the process in which an intracellular protein-containing vesicle fuses with the cell membrane and expels the protein to the outside of the cell?
A protein containing vesicle within a cell fuses with the cell membrane and ejects the protein is called exocytosis. A lysosome eats or ingests a bacterium is called phagocytosis.
What organelle is most responsible for maintaining homeostasis?
The endoplasmic reticulum is mostly responsible for maintaining homeostasis due to its involvement in protein synthesis, lipid metabolism, and calcium storage and release. The ER helps maintain proper balance within the cell by regulating these processes.
Parts of an animal cell?
Lysosome or the "suicide bags'' * is a membrane bound cavity in living cells that contain enzymes that are responsible for degrading and recycling molecules. cell membrane * a thin layer of protein and fat that surrounds the cell. cytoplasm * a jelly like material outside the nucleus in which the organelles are located. Golgi body * packages protein and carbohydrates into membrane bound vesicle for "export" from the cell.
What is the name of a cell organelle not bounded by membrane?
Ribosome is a cell organelle not bounded by membrane. It is responsible for protein synthesis in the cell.
What contains protein digesting enzymes?
lysosome
What produces membrane and endoplasmic reticulum?
The ribosomes are responsible for protein production in the cell, and are thus instrumental in producing membrane and endoplasmic reticulum.
What membrane protein is responsible for binding hormones that can switch on a cell?
The membrane protein responsible for binding hormones that can switch on a cell's response is typically a hormone receptor. These receptors are often found on the surface of the cell membrane and can activate signaling pathways inside the cell in response to hormone binding.
What makes up half the mass of a membrane?
The cell membrane plays host to a large amount of protein that is responsible for its various activities. The amount of protein differs between species and according to function, however the typical amount in a cell membrane is 50%.
What organelle is responsible for breaking things down?
Lysosomes. As they contain potent enzymes responsible splitting complex chemical compounds into simpler subunits i.e. protein polysaccharides and lipids.
What enters and leaves the cell and provides protein and support?
the lysosome
