Which organelles breaks down old blood cells and other worn out organelles in the cell?
The organelle responsible for breaking down old blood cells and other worn-out organelles in the cell is the lysosome. Lysosomes contain enzymes that help to break down cellular waste and recycling the components for reuse by the cell.
What do lysosomes do in white blood that cells eat bacteria?
Lysosomes in white blood cells help digest engulfed bacteria through a process called phagocytosis. They contain enzymes that break down the bacterial particles into simpler molecules, allowing the white blood cell to eliminate the threat effectively.
Where are damaged red blood cells phagocytized?
Damaged red blood cells are phagocytized in the spleen, liver, and bone marrow by macrophages. These specialized immune cells engulf and break down the damaged cells to recycle their components like iron and proteins.
What organs removes dead rbc?
kidneys
Where does most of the cleanup of dead red blood cells take place?
Most of the cleanup of dead red blood cells takes place in the spleen. The spleen contains specialized cells called macrophages that engulf and break down the old red blood cells, recycling their components for future use in the body.
What blood cells fight germs and break down dead cells?
white blood cells
What cell fight germs and break down dead cells?
white blood cells
What cells use lysosomes to break down food and old cells parts?
Lysosomes are organelles found in animal cells that serve to break down food and also recycle other cell parts. They are not present in blood cells.
Functions of the lysosome?
. break down material ingested by white blood cells . digest old organelles . autolysis (break down dead cells) Waste Basket - Myleen Mestiola
What cells use lysosomes to break down food and old cell parts?
Lysosomes are organelles found in animal cells that serve to break down food and also recycle other cell parts. They are not present in blood cells.
Why do we break down food?
We break down food so we get things like water and nutriants into our blood!
What has a hemolytic funcion?
Hemolytic is when red blood cells are broken down inside the body. The spleen is generally an organ that does this in the human body. Its function is to break down the red blood cells and making hemoglobin.
What happens when the blood reaches tissues or cells that do not have enough oxygen?
The oxyhaemoglobin will break down and oxygen will release. :)
How does the skeleton function in cell production?
It is a major contributor of white blood cells, red blood cells and platelets. It also has cells in the bone itself that make and break down bone called osteoblasts and osteoclasts.
How are white cells functioned?
White blood cells destroy bacteria and viruses found in your body by releasing enzymes and proteins to break down the foreign cells then consuming it.
What human organ is responsible for detoxification of red blood cells?
The liver is primarily responsible for detoxifying red blood cells. It filters out old or damaged blood cells and helps to break down hemoglobin from those cells into bilirubin, which is then excreted in bile.
How do cells get the proteins the need from food?
enzymes break down food proteins into smaller molecules that can be carried by blood
