What fuses with a lysosome?
A vacuole, then the contents of the vacuole empty into the lysosome and get digested. A vacuole, then the contents of the vacuole empty into the lysosome and get digested.
What fuses with food vacuole and digests contents?
lysosome
Once solid material is phagocytized and taken into a vacuole what takes place?
The vacuole then fuses with a lysosome, where the solid material is then degraded.
What happens when a lysosome fuses with a vacuole?
Vacuoles store things, so it would make sense that food vacuoles store food. Lysosomes digest things into smaller usable materials (or destroy them) so lysosomes will attach to food vacuoles so they can efficiently digest food. The vacuole to store the food waiting to be digested by the lysosome.
How do large food particles exit an amoeba?
Amoeba ingests food by a process known as phagocytosis. The amoeba modifies its cytoskeleton to 'wrap around' the food particle with its membranes. The membrane then fuses, trapping the food particle in a vacuole inside the cell. The vacuole is then fused with a lysosome and the lysosomal enzymes will break down the food particle.
Is movement the function of lysosome?
No, the lysosome is the cell's " stomach " in that it catalyzes used and worn molecules in the cell by fusing with many. A large worn out mitochondria can be broken down into it's constituent parts when the lysosome fuses with it.
What is the process by which a vacuole fuses with the cell membrane and releases?
exocytosis
Which Cell organelle fuses with a vesicle for purposes of digestion?
vacuole
What is a Heterophagosome and a Autophagosome?
heterophagosome is formed when a lysosome fuses with another vescicle within the cell and causes its digestion. autophagosomy is when the lysosome digests the whole cell by rupturing to release its enzymes.
What is the process by which a vacuole fuses with the cell membrane and releases its contents out of the cell?
I believe the answer is Endocytosis
A vacuole carrying waste materials from a cell fuses with the inside surface of the cells plasma membrane?
exocytosis?
A vacuole carrying waste materials from a cell fuses with the inside surface of the cell's plasma membrane?
exocytosis
