Answer:
(i) Lysosomes are involved in the intracellular digestion of food particles ingested by the cell through endocytosis.
(ii) The lysosomes of WBCs (white blood cells) destroy pathogens and other foreign particles and thus take part in natural defence of the body.
(iii) They are involved in the destruction of aged and worn out cellular organelles. They are, therefore, also called demolition squads or scavengers or cellular housekeeper.

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. They may be used to destroy invading viruses and bacteria.
