Lysosomes are small cell organelles that contain acid hydrolases enzymes. Lysosomes are formed from Golgi complex and each lysosomes is covered by single membrane. These are non-specific, meaning can act on any type of substances.
The function of lysosomes in the cell is to fuse with food vacuole and deliver the enzymes present in it. Now the food in the food vacuole is digested and absorbed.
Lysosomes also help in digesting the cell itself from inside out. Hence, called suicidal bags of cells. This is much helpful in a process called apoptosis (programmed cell death).
They digest excess and worn out cell organelles. In case of phagocytes, these play an vital role in a process called phagocytosis.
What else can I help you with?
Is lyososome a plant or animal cell?
Lysosomes are found in animal cells and are responsible for breaking down and recycling cellular waste. Plant cells have similar structures called lytic vacuoles, which serve a similar function to lysosomes.
Does an animal cell have a cell wall?
No, animal cells do not have a cell wall.
How can you tell if its a animal cell or plant cell?
If the cell has a cell wall and a vacuole and chloroplasts You can tell them apart by looking through the microscope and seeing if it has a cell wall. If it does then it is a plant cell. If it doesn't then it is an animal cell.
Which cell is lack of cell wall?
Animal cells do not have a cell wall. The cell wall is a rigid structure found in plant cells, fungi, and some bacteria, providing structural support and protection. Without a cell wall, animal cells rely on other components like the cytoskeleton for structural integrity.
Is the muscle cell a plant or animal cell?
The muscle cell is an animal cell. It is a specialized cell found in animals that is responsible for generating force through its contraction, allowing for movement and various physiological functions in the body.
Is lyososome a plant or animal cell?
Lysosomes are found in animal cells and are responsible for breaking down and recycling cellular waste. Plant cells have similar structures called lytic vacuoles, which serve a similar function to lysosomes.
What makes a nerve cell an animal cell?
the cell is a cell and an animal cell is an animal cell
Is an cheek cell a plant cell or an animal cell?
It is an animal cell.
Is a throat cell a plant cell or an animal cell?
it's an animal cell as it is part of an animal body
Does animal has animal cell?
Yes. There is a vacuole in an animal cell.
An animal cell does not have?
An animal cell does not havea cell wallchlorophyllFlagellum
Is the nerve cell a animal cell or plant cell?
its a type of animal cell.
Is a cillited epithelial cell a plant cell or a animal cell?
an animal cell
What is an animal type of cell?
its an animal cell.
Is a cell a plant and animal cell?
an animal cell has cell membrane a plant cell has cell wall.
What is the cell wall of animal cell?
Animal cells do not have cell walls (but plant cells do).The cell membrane in an animal cell is a phospholipid bilayer.
How is animal cells different from plant cell?
well the animal is different from a plant cell because a plant cell have a cell wall, & chloroplast and the animal cell does not
