Smooth Endoplasmic reticulum (SER) synthesize lipids whereas Peroxisomes (one of two types of microbodies) break down lipids into useable molecules as well as catalyze detox rxns in the liver.

Rough ER droduce protein products whereas proteins are broken down in the stomach by protease enzymes in the stomach. There may be an organelle responsible for that but I don't remember.

When an animal's stomach contains enzymes that break down food into smaller molecules that the animal's cells can useenzymes perform this function by?

Enzymes in an animal's stomach break down food into smaller molecules by speeding up chemical reactions. They interact with specific substrates in the food molecules to produce smaller, more easily absorbed molecules that can nourish the animal's cells. This process allows the animal to obtain energy and essential nutrients from the food it consumes.


Which organelle is responsible for holding chemicals needed for digestion in an animal cell?

The organelle responsible for holding chemicals needed for digestion in an animal cell is the lysosome. Lysosomes contain enzymes that break down macromolecules such as proteins, nucleic acids, lipids, and carbohydrates into smaller molecules that can be used by the cell. These enzymes function best in the acidic environment maintained within the lysosome.

What organelle resembles the stomach?

The lysosome, an organelle in the human/animal cell, is most like the stomach. The lysosome contains enzymes to digest materials like food, dead cell parts, and waste. Along with foreign "invaders."


In animal cells hydrolytic enzymes are packaged to prevent general destruction of cellular components what organelles functions in this compartmentalization?

Lysosomes are the organelles responsible for the storage and release of hydrolytic enzymes in animal cells. They play a key role in breaking down cellular waste and recycling cellular components. The acidic environment within lysosomes helps to maintain enzyme activity while preventing damage to other cellular components.


Is nucleus found in a animal organelle?

The nucleus is an organelle. It is not found in an organelle.


What does the lysososmes do?

the lysosomes are a special organelle that are found in the cytoplasm if animal cells these are formed in the Golgi apparatus they contain digestive enzymes that are responsible for splitting complex chemical compounds
