Name the cell organelle which is innvilved in the formation of lysosomes.
Answers
Answer:
The formation of lysosomes involves both the endoplasmic reticulum and the golgi apparatus. - Enzymes of the lysosomes are synthesized from the proteins of the rough endoplasmic reticulum.
- The formation of lysosomes involves both the endoplasmic reticulum and the Golgi apparatus.
- Enzymes of the lysosomes are synthesized from the proteins of the rough endoplasmic reticulum.
- The enzymes are released from the Golgi apparatus in small vesicles that fuse with the acidic vesicles of the Golgi apparatus. These acidic vesicles are termed endosomes. This fusion forms a lysosome.
Additional information: Lysosomes are spherical cell organelle, that contains hydrolytic enzymes or digestive enzymes. They break down excess or worn-out cell parts.
- Lysosomes act as the "garbage disposal" of a cell. They also destroy and remove invading viruses and bacteria.
- Lysosomes are also called 'suicidal bags' as they undergo a process that is called programmed cell death or apoptosis. This happens when the repairing of the damaged cell is not possible, the digestive enzymes start digesting their cell.
