Hello friend

Lysosomes are also called as the suicidal bags of the cell. They digest the unwanted and harmful enzymes which is present in the cell. The enzymes present in the lysosomes have an ability to destroy the whole cell. When the outer membrane of the lysosomes becomes weak or when the enzymes harm the outer !membrane the lysosome burst out and the enzymes can destroy the cell. And this is the reason why they are called as the suicidal bags of the cell.

Hope it helps!
