Does a mitochondria have a membrane?

Recalling endosymbiont-theory, many millions of years ago a cell was hungry and incorporated a bacterium. So the cell wrapped a lysosome around the bacterium and tried to digest it. But somehow the bacterium resisted and both found that it's an advantage for them to live in symbiosis. The cell fed the bacterium with nutrients and it reciprocated by donating his host energy (ATP). The proof lies within the form of the double membrane: the inner membrane has many wrinkles and resembles a bacterium while the outer membrane is smooth, like the mantle of a lysosome.


What are lysomes help the white blood cells do their job?

Lysosomes contain digestive enzymes within a cell. When a white blood cell engulfs a bacterium, the lysosome will merge with the vesicle containing the bacterium and digest it.

The process by which a white blood cell ingests a disease causing organism?

The process by which a white blood cell ingests a disease-causing organism is called phagocytosis. The white blood cell engulfs the pathogen using its cell membrane, forming a vesicle called a phagosome. The phagosome then fuses with a lysosome to form a phagolysosome, where the pathogen is destroyed.
