Question
Cell organeles having hydrolases / digestive enzymes are
Options
A.peroxisomes
B.lysosmes
C.ribosomes
D.mesosomes
Solution
Lysosmes(or suicidal bags or cellular house keepers or scavenger of cell) are single membrane bound, spherical microbodies, filled with different types of acid hydrolases(digestive enzymes) working at pH ≤ 5, and can digest almost every type of organic matter except cellulose. Primary lysosmes (storage granules) unites with food vacuole (phagosome) forming secondary lysosmes ( heterophagosomes or digestive vacuoles), ehich cause intracellular digestion (heterophagy.)
