What is the name of the organelle that contains digestive enzymes which breaks down worn out or damaged organelles waste materials and foreign invaders?
The lysosomes in a cell contain digestive enzyme that breaks down food, waste products, and pathogens. They can breakdown macromolecules like proteins, lipids, and carbohydrates. They also break down old organelles and unneeded cell parts. When a cell takes in bacteria, viruses, or other pathogens, lysosomes break them down.
What is supplied to cells when the body breaks down proteins?
Enzymes

Why are enzymes catalysts?
Enzymes are cataysts because they also speeds up reaction.Enzymes also breaks down particles substances.Example of an enzyme that breaks down is,the enzymes amalzye.
Which part of the body contains enzymes that breaks down starch into simple sugar?

What breaks down nutrient?

How do you get protease enzymes out of saliva or the pancreas?

What does the body do to get rid of a pathogen?
Pathogens as you probably know is a micro-organism which causes diseases by releasing toxins into the blood supply. This is countered by white blood cells that are in the blood stream which basically 'eat' the microbe and the enzymes it contains breaks down the bacteria and will die inside the white blood cell. Or antibodies are created to neutralize the toxins and the bacteria themselves.
