List the functions of the following:(a) Lysosome (b) Mitochondria (c) Golgi apparatus
Answers
Explanation:
(A)One of the key organelles involved in digestion and waste removal is the lysosome. Lysosomes are organelles that contain digestive enzymes. They digest excess or worn out organelles, food particles, and engulfed viruses or bacteria. Lysosomes are like the stomach of the cell.
(B)The most prominent roles of mitochondria are to produce the energy currency of the cell, ATP (i.e., phosphorylation of ADP), through respiration, and to regulate cellular metabolism. The central set of reactions involved in ATP production are collectively known as the citric acid cycle, or the Krebs cycle
(C)It has been likened to the cell's post office. A major function is the modifying, sorting and packaging of proteins for secretion. It is also involved in the transport of lipids around the cell, and the creation of lysosomes. The sacs or folds of the Golgi apparatus are called cisternae
Answer:
hope this helps.
Explanation:
a) lysosomes:
1. membrane bound sacks.
2. contain powerful digestive enzymes made by the ER.
3. known as waste disposal system.
4. also known as suicidal bags of the cell.
b) mitochondria:
1. regulates cell functions.
2. if it is removed, cell dies.
3. contains chromosomes.
4. known as power house of cell.
c) golgi apparatus:
1. synthesis of lysosomes.
2. storage, modification and package of products.
3. sometimes, they form complex sugars from simple ones.
