What is a lysosome that eats or ingests a bacterium?

A lysosome is a cell organelle containing enzymes that can digest cellular waste and foreign particles, like bacteria, through a process called phagocytosis. During phagocytosis, the lysosome fuses with the phagosome containing the ingested bacterium, releasing digestive enzymes to break down and destroy the invader.


Where are old cell organelles broken down?

in the mitochondria


Do lysosomes carry on cellular respiration?

Lysosomes DO in fact recycle other organelles. When the organelles die off the lysosomes recycle them into raw material so they can be used to re-build other organelles. This is a very basic answer, but I hope it helps

What body system ingests food?

The digestive system ingests food. It includes organs such as the mouth, esophagus, stomach, and intestines that work together to break down food into nutrients that can be absorbed by the body.


Where would old cell organelles be broken down or digested to be recyled in the cell?

This occurs during a process called autophagy. Autophagosomes encircle damaged or old organelles. they then fuse with lysosomes where these organelles are broken down and digested. This takes place in the lysosome.


How a cold plasma works?

Cold plasma is formed when a modulated electric field is applied to a pair of electrodes. Oxygen molecules in the air that come into contact with the plasma break down into reactive oxygen species (ROS). Organic substrates such as mold spores, bacteria, and viruses that are exposed to these broken down oxygen molecules are destroyed or rendered harmless on contact. Therefore the air becomes free of bacteria and viruses.
