small, round structures in cells that break down large food particles into smaller ones
A
Ribosomes
B
Chloroplasts
C
Lysosomes
D
Vacuoles
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Lysosomes function as the digestive system of the cell, serving both to degrade material taken up from outside the cell and to digest obsolete components of the cell itself.

Detailed explanation-2: -Lysosomes are found in nearly every animal-like eukaryotic cell. They are so common in animal cells because, when animal cells take in or absorb food, they need the enzymes found in lysosomes in order to digest and use the food for energy.

Detailed explanation-3: -Lysosomes are major degradative organelles in eukaryotic cells. Their luminal pH is acidic ( 5), and a variety of acid hydrolases in their lumen achieve their degradative function.

Detailed explanation-4: -Lysosomes-Created by the Golgi apparatus, these help break down large molecules into smaller pieces that the cell can use. Vacuole-Plant cells have what looks like a very large empty space in the middle. This space is called the vacuole.

Detailed explanation-5: -A lysosome (/ˈlaɪsəˌsoʊm/) is a membrane-bound organelle found in many animal cells. They are spherical vesicles that contain hydrolytic enzymes that can break down many kinds of biomolecules.
