Detailed explanation-1: -Lysosomes. In animal cells, the lysosomes are the cell’s “garbage disposal.” Digestive enzymes within the lysosomes aid the breakdown of proteins, polysaccharides, lipids, nucleic acids, and even worn-out organelles.
Detailed explanation-2: -Lysosomes act as the waste disposal system of the cell. They have hydrolyzing enzymes which can digest biological substances. They also help in recycling amino acids after degradation of proteins no longer in use.
Detailed explanation-3: -Lysosomes have powerful enzymes and acids to digest and recycle cell materials. Credit: Judith Stoffer. Proteins aren’t the only type of cellular waste. Cells also have to recycle compartments called organelles when they become old and worn out.
