Detailed explanation-1: -The lysosomes contain digestive enzymes that break down large food particles into sugars and other simple substances that can be used more easily as does a food processing plant that processes large quantities of food entering the city into smaller packages that can be used more easily.
Detailed explanation-2: -As most high schoolers learn, the lysosome carries out waste disposal and recycling. In a process known as autophagy (meaning “self-eating”), it takes in old cellular components and unneeded large molecules, such as proteins, nucleic acids and sugars, and digests them with the help of enzymes and acids.
Detailed explanation-3: -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-4: -Stomach: Stomach is a muscular organ that secretes enzymes to aid in the digestion of food. Stomach function similar to the lysosome.
