Summary Introduction
To explain:
Observation after examining the cells of a patient of a lysosomal storage disease and design a series of tests that could be used to reveal that a patient is suffering from a lysosomal storage disease.
Introduction:
Another term that is used for lysosomes are the suicidal bag. Lysosomes are a membrane-bound organelle of the endomembrane system, which consists of numerous digestive elements. Lysosomes are responsible for carrying out the digestion of the waste and breaking down the complex molecules.
