Summary Introduction
To review:
Match the term lysosomes with the most closely related descriptions given below:
DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) replication.
Flattened membrane discs, packaging.
Adjacent plasma membranes bound by bands of interlocking proteins.
Packaging of materials for import into cell.
RNA (ribonucleic acid) and protein; protein synthesis.
Control center; stores genetic information.
Cell vesicles with digestive enzymes.
Embedded in the plasma membrane.
Internal protein framework in the cytoplasm.
Introduction:
Cells may differ in the organelle composition. Organelles are the structures that perform several functions in the cell. They are important for several cellular functions. Organelles are classified into membranous and nonmembranous organelles. Some of the organelles found in the cells are lysosomes, ribosomes, Golgi apparatus, mitochondria, and others.
