Saprotrophic bacteria and fungi secrete digestive enzymes into dead organic matter in order to decompose it, and recycle it's nutrients (such as carbon, nitrogen, and phosphorous)

Why is lysosome called a suicide bag?
Lysosome is called a suicide bag because it can destroy the cell of which it is a part of. When cell gets damaged or wounded, lysosomes burst and release some digestive enzymes which digest the cell itself.
What is found inside lysosomes?
Lysosomes are like the "garbage collectors" in a cell. They collect all of the wastes that the cell does not use and they get rid of them, either by excreting them or breaking them down.
What cell organelle is known as the suicide bag of the cell?
Lysosome contain digestive enzymes for almost all type of organic material. If their covering membrane breaks as it happens during injury to cell, the digestive enzymes will spill over cell content and digest the same. As lysosomes are organelles which on bursting can kill cells possessing them ,they are called suicide sacs.
Are enzymes an organic?
In general organic contains carbon molecules and/or those related to life. It is the chemistry of carbon containing compounds. Inorganic is everything else and generally do not contain carbon (with some exceptions). However, enzymes are generally organic
What type of organic molecule are enzymes?
the type of organic molecule an enzyme is would be a protien
Fungi give off powerful digestive enzymes that break down organic matter This happens?
Fungi give off powerful digestive enzymes that break down organic matter. This happens
What do bacteria eat and how do they eat it?
dead organic material. they secrete digestive enzymes then absorb the nutrients.
Is pepsinogen organic or inorganic?
Pepsinogen is an inactive form of the digestive enzyme pepsin. Almost all enzymes are proteins, and proteins are organic macromolecules.
What plant is a eukaryote and obtains energy by secreting digestive enzymes into decaying organic matter and then absorbing the digested material?
Fungi
Why lysosomes are the suicidal bags of the cell?
Lysosomes are bags containing hydrolytic enzymes. These enzymes can break the living cell. Hence, lysosmes are called the Suicidal Bag of cells.
Is enzymes pork for Muslims?
No. Enzymes are organic molecules used by organisms to facilitate certain biochemistry. Pork is the raw meat from a (usually domestic) pig or hog. They are not comparable.
What is the name of suicide bag of the cell?
Lysosome contain digestive enzymes for almost all type of organic material. If their covering membrane breaks as it happens during injury to cell, the digestive enzymes will spill over cell content and digest the same. As lysosomes are organelles which on bursting can kill cells possessing them ,they are called suicide sacs.
Why is lysosome called a suicide bag?

Is enzymes organic?
organic
Enzymes are organic?
Yes. Nearly all enzymes are proteins, and proteins are organic compounds.
How do you compare detritivores and saprotrophs as to their mode of eating?
Saprotrophs are organisms that break down dead organic material to inorganic products, important in recycling of nutrients in ecosystems. Detritivores such as woodlice and earthworms are saprotrophic organisms that ingest dead organic material and break it down during digestion by enzymes to smaller particle size. Some of the digested particles are not absorbed but eliminated onto the soil where they form humus. Fungi and bacteria are saprotrophic organisms called decomposers. They further breakdown organic material in the humus by secreting enzymes externally then absorbing the digested material. Mineral nutrients such as ammonia are released to the soil at this stage. The detritivores increase the surface area of the dead organic material making it easier for the decomposers to break it down completely to inorganic molecules.
What are suicide sacs also known as?
Lysosome contain digestive enzymes for almost all type of organic material. If their covering membrane breaks as it happens during injury to cell, the digestive enzymes will spill over cell content and digest the same. As lysosomes are organelles which on bursting can kill cells possessing them ,they are called suicide bags
