NEET BIOLOGY

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 act as a clean up crew for the cell.

Detailed explanation-3: -Lysosomes are involved with various cell processes. They break down excess or worn-out cell parts. They may be used to destroy invading viruses and bacteria. If the cell is damaged beyond repair, lysosomes can help it to self-destruct in a process called programmed cell death, or apoptosis.

Detailed explanation-4: -Lysosomes are membrane-bound organelles found in every eukaryotic cell. They are widely known as terminal catabolic stations that rid cells of waste products and scavenge metabolic building blocks that sustain essential biosynthetic reactions during starvation.

Detailed explanation-5: -Lysosomes are the cell’s digestive system. They have digestive enzymes that degrade complex wastes, worn out organelles, invading pathogens and complex food molecules. They also break down the dead cells, so they are called the suicidal bags of the cell.
