easy Q3 of 15
Step-by-Step Solution
Step 1: Understand the organelle function
The question asks which organelle digests worn-out parts and foreign particles.Step 2: Recall lysosome role
Lysosomes contain digestive enzymes that break down waste and damaged organelles. Golgi apparatus packages proteins, ribosomes synthesize proteins, chloroplasts perform photosynthesis.Final Answer:
Lysosome → Option BQuick Check:
Digestive enzymes location = Lysosome ✅
Quick Trick: Lysosomes are called 'suicide bags' due to enzyme content.
Common Mistakes:
- Confusing lysosomes with Golgi apparatus or ribosomes.
