lysosome: Mechanism to digest food in the cell. Also help in degrading organelles that  have been worn out such as mitochondria

Answer 2

Difference between ribosomes and lysosomes:

Ribosomes

• It is a membrane bound cell organelle.
• Size: 20-30 nm
• It is segmented into two sub units.
• It is involved in protein synthesis.
• It is called “Protein factory” of the cell.

Lysosomes

• It is a non-membrane bound cell organelle.
• Size: 0.1-1.2 μm
• It is one single organelle. No sub units are present.
• It is involved in intracellular digestion.
• It is called “suicidal bag “ of the cell.
