Question
Chapter 2, Problem 8RQ
Summary Introduction
To determine:
The true statement about lysosomes.
Introduction:
Cytoplasm is the region of the cell present between the cell membrane and the nuclear membrane. Cytoplasm includes cytosol, cell organelles, and inclusions. Cytosol is the fluid of the cell where all the cell organelles are present and it further includes enzymes, ions, and other molecules required by the organelles to perform their functions.

Students have asked these similar questions
Identify the false statement about centrioles. (a) They start to duplicate in G1. (b) They lie in the centrosome. (c) They are made of microtubules. (d) They are membrane-walled barrels lying parallel to each other.
Give the specific terms for the following:(a)Cluster of ribosome’s found in cytoplasm(b)Extensive in folding to the inner membrane of mitochondria.(c) Stacks of closely packed thylakoids(d)Stalked particles on the inner membrane of mitochondria.
1. Lysosome is regarded as a body that is covered by membrane, a little smaller than
mitochondrion and functions as storage for several hydrolytic enzymes. The enzymes in
lysosome can digest substances that are engulfed by the cell and under certain conditions
can destroy the cell itself.
(a) Name ONE type of cell in the human body that contains many lysosomes. Explain
why the cell contains many lysosomes.
(b) State ONE different between the lysosome membrane and the mitochondrion
membrane.
(c) State ONE special feature of the lysosome membrane.
(d) Explain how lysosome acts to release its enzymes in the cell.

- -Mature parent cell Budding- cell 1 μη Test II. Examine the micrograph of the yeast cells. The scale bar under the photo is labeled 1 um. The scale bar works in the same way as a scale on a map, where, for example, 1 inch equals 1 mile. In this case the bar represents one thousandth of a millimeter. Using the scale bar as a basic unit, determine the diameter of the mature parent cell and the new cell. Start by measuring the scale bar and the diameter of each cell. The units you use are irrelevant, but working in millimeters is convenient. Divide each diameter by the length of the scale bar and then multiply by the scale bar's length value to give you the diameter in micrometers.arrow_forwardThe trans face of the Golgi apparatus (a) is its convex face; (b) is where products leave the Golgi apparatus in vesicles; (c) receives transport vesicles from the rough ER; (d) is in the very center of the Golgi stack; (e) is the same as the cis face.arrow_forward1) All of the following are functions of proteins within a membrane except __________.
