  1. lysosomes are fromed by glogi bodies..... the golgi bodies from a GERL  complex from which the lysosomes bud out......they are single membraned  n comtain hydrolytic enzymes active at acidic ph!!they basically help in digestion as they contain hydrolytic enzyme.......they also help to destroy any foreign agent tht enters the cell ...........they are also called sucide bag as they sumtime kill their own cell!!!if u wana knw more mail me at manu.p@rediff.com


  2. it contain enzyme, like stong oxidizing enzymes. its function is to destroy foreign antigen.

  3. Lysosomes are made of lipids and they are little pockets containing digestive fluids that they keep separate of the cytosol of a cell.  They engulf intracellular material and break it down for recycling.

  4. Lysosomes are made:

    with polyribosomes and initially sequestered in the rough  endoplasmic reticulum. They are arranged in rosettes and these can be seen in the cytoplasm in conventional electron micrographs. It contains an initial "signal peptide" that allows it to be recognized by the rough endoplasmic reticulum.  Signal peptide binds to a receptor and helps anchor the polyribosomes on the surface of the rough endoplasmie reticulum.  

    functions of lysosomes:

    supply the enzymes for degradation of worn out cell parts in a process called autophagy . Lysosomes also provide the enzymes for degradation of particulate material taken in by phagocytosis or fluid phase pinocytosis. Membrane bound structures in various phases of degradation are secondary lysosomes.

  5. Lysosomes are membranous structure containing enzymes. They are called suicidal bags

  6. its function is cellular digestion

    its made of the same material as a vesicle and produced by golgi bodies i think
