What function does the lysosome perform in a cell?
lysosome is the main digestive organelle
What is a human analogy to a lysosome?
A lysosome is analogous (in function) to a human digestive system.
What would a lysosome be in a cell city project?
The lysosome in a cell city project would be the Waste Disposal Plant or Recycle Plant becuase the lysosome digests worn out organells and breaks down organalles that no longer function properly.
Function of Golgi apparatus and lysosome?
There may be two possibilities of a lysosome(in function) after it releases from the golgi apparatus as primary lysosome,It can fuse with the food vacuole to form secondary lysosome and then digest it.second it may fuse with damaged organelle to form secondary lysosome and then it digests it.
Create analogy describing the job of a lysosome within a cellular factory?
it would be the function of the cytoskeleton.
What function does the lysosome perform in a cell?
lysosome is the main digestive organelle
What is a human analogy to a lysosome?
A lysosome is analogous (in function) to a human digestive system.
What does the lysosome function?
The function of a lysosome is to break down materials and some other things in the cell so that they are in a form that the cell can use.
What does the lysosome contain to carry out its function?
they digest it
Something that performs the same function as the lysosome?
Nothing
What is the primary function of this cell lysosome?
A+ recycling center.
What is the primary function of this cell part (lysosome)?
A+ recycling center.
How does lysosome function?
lysosomes produce powerful enzymes which digest proteins
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 performs the same function as the lysosome?
Waste Management
What is an analogy for a lysosome?
The main function of a lysosome is to digest, so it could be compared to a stomach.
What does plant cell have instead of a lysosome that does the same thing as the lysosome?
plant cells do not have lysosomes but they do have a central vacuole that does a similar function of breaking down materials with enzymes
