Lysosome. A lysosome is a membrane-bound cell organelle that contains digestive enzymes.
Lysosomes
are involved with various cell processes. They break down excess or worn-out cell parts.
Which organelle contains digestive enzymes that break down waste material and debris in the South?
Lysosomes
are cellular organelles which contain acid hydrolase enzymes to break up waste materials and cellular debris. Lysosomes digest excess or worn-out organelles, food particles, and engulfed viruses or bacteria. The membrane around a lysosome allows the digestive enzymes to work at pH 4.5.
Which organelle contains digestive enzymes that break down waste material and debris in the cell a lysosome B ribosome C vacuole D chloroplast?
Lysosomes are membrane-enclosed organelles that contain an array of enzymes capable of breaking down all types of biological polymers—proteins, nucleic acids, carbohydrates, and lipids.
Which organelle breaks down waste in a cell?
Lysosomes
break down cellular waste products, fats, carbohydrates, proteins, and other macromolecules into simple compounds, which are then transferred back into the cytoplasm as new cell-building materials.
Which organelle is responsible for digesting large molecules and or waste products?
Lysosome
, subcellular organelle that is found in nearly all types of eukaryotic cells (cells with a clearly defined nucleus) and that is responsible for the digestion of macromolecules, old cell parts, and microorganisms.
What are the two organelles containing a digestive enzyme?
Lysosomes
: Lysosomes are membrane-bound organelles that contain digestive enzymes that break down proteins, lipids, carbohydrates, and nucleic acids. They are important in processing the contents of vesicles taken in from outside the cell.
What is the jelly like substance that supports the cell organelles?
The cytoplasm, or cell fluid
, is made up of a jelly-like substance (cytosol) and within that, the organelles. The organelles are the cell’s organs. The cytoplasm is often colourless and is surrounded by the cell membrane which keeps the contents within the cell.
What removes waste from cells?
Within a cell,
lysosomes
help with recycling and waste removal through a number of pathways. Rich in powerful enzymes that can break down molecules and even entire organelles and bacteria, lysosomes fuse with sacs carrying cellular debris (via autophagy) or pathogens from outside the cell (via phagocytosis).
What surrounds material to be moved into or out of a cell?
–
A vesicle
is a small sac that surrounds material to be moved into or out of a cell. -All eukaryotic cells have vesicles.
What is the name of the organelle that is in charge of getting rid of the waste that the cell does not need?
| A B | Lysosomes organelles that break down food molecules, waste products, and old cells. | Vacuoles organelles that store water, food, and wastes in a cell and help get rid of wastes. | Chloroplasts organelles in plant cells that contain chlorophyll for photosynthesis. |

Which organelle converts food into energy the cell can use?
Mitochondria
are known as the powerhouses of the cell. They are organelles that act like a digestive system which takes in nutrients, breaks them down, and creates energy rich molecules for the cell. In cellular respiration sugar with the help of oxygen is broken down into ATP (energy molecule).
Which organelle is responsible for proteins?
Ribosomes
. Ribosomes are the protein factories of the cell.
Why plants do not have lysosomes?
Lysosomes are found in nearly every animal-like eukaryotic cell. … On the other hand, lysosomes are not commonly-found in plant cells. Lysosomes are not needed in plant cells
because they have cell walls that are tough enough to keep the large/foreign substances that lysosomes would usually digest out of the cell
.
What cell makes ribosomes?
Eukaryote ribosomes are produced and assembled in
the nucleolus
. Ribosomal proteins enter the nucleolus and combine with the four rRNA strands to create the two ribosomal subunits (one small and one large) that will make up the completed ribosome (see Figure 1).
Which organelle is the major site of ATP synthesis?
Most eukaryotic cells contain many
mitochondria
, which occupy up to 25 percent of the volume of the cytoplasm. These complex organelles, the main sites of ATP production during aerobic metabolism, are among the largest organelles, generally exceeded in size only by the nucleus, vacuoles, and chloroplasts.
What cell structure sorts packages proteins?
Once proteins are created, they move to another organelle,
the Golgi
(GAWL jee) apparatus. The Golgi apparatus modifies, sorts, and packs the proteins into sacs called vesicles. The vesicles fuse with the cell’s plasma membrane.
