Lysosomes are membrane-bound vesicles containing acidic hydrolytic enzyme in the form of minute crystalline or semicrystalline granules. They are rich in cells involved in intracellular digestion. They are also known as suicidal bags. There are about 40-50 types of hydrolytic enzymes in lysosomes which are synthesized in RER and catogrised as Nucleases for digesting nucleic acid, Lipase for lipids, Phosphatases for phosphate linked compound , Sulphatases for sulphur linked compounds and Glycosidases for polysaccharide digestion. Lysosomes show polymorphism. So take this quiz and increase your knowledge about Lysosomes or suicide bag.
