What is the location of lysosomes in a cell?

Lysosomes are membrane-bound organelles that are found throughout the cytoplasm of animal cells. They are primarily located near the cell's nucleus and are involved in the breakdown of cellular waste and foreign material.


What is the difference between a lysosome and a lysozyme?

Lysosomes are organelles that contain powerful enzymes to assist in destroying cellular debris and the breakdown of proteins and lysozymes are one of the proteolytic enzymes found in lysosomes that catalyze (breakdown) the protein wall of bacteria, especially gram positive bacteria, making lysozymes a vital part of our first-line defense against bacterial infection. Dr. Winston Morrow


How do lysosomes work?

vacuoles basically have the same functions as vesicles therefore, in plant cells, when lysosomes are fused with the vacuole, the contents within the vacuole are digested by lysosomes' hydrolytic enzymes into the simpler subunits. Remember that vacuoles not only store H2O, sugar and salt, but also pigments and toxic molecules. The digested contents are now simpler molecules that are released into the cytoplasm. Also, normal rejuvination occurs when parts of a cell are digested within its own lysosomes (autodigestion).


What cell part breaks down nutrients and foreign substances?

The organelle that cleans the cell are lysosomes. They also breakdown food molecules into a form that the rest of the cell can use. Furthermore, the breakdown old organelles that have lost their usefulness.
