प्रश्न
Why are lysosomes known as suicide bags?
लघु उत्तर
उत्तर
- Lysosomes are membrane-bound vesicular structures that contain powerful digestive enzymes. These enzymes can break down foreign food particles or microbes entering the cell.
- Sometimes, lysosomes can cause self-destruction of a cell by releasing these digestive enzymes within the cells. Hence, they are also known as ‘suicidal bags’.
