प्रश्न
Why are lysosomes also known as “scavengers of the cells”?
उत्तर
Lysosomes are known as “scavengers of the cells” because they are a kind of waste disposal system of the cell. This is due to the presence of powerful digestive enzymes which are capable of breaking down all organic material. Lysosomes help to keep the cell clean by digesting any foreign material (such as bacteria, food particles, etc.) as well as worn-out cell organelles.
