Dear student,
Lysosomes are the membrane-bound vesicles, which contain digestive (hydrolytic) enzymes like acid hydrolase. They are also known as ‘ suicide-bags’ of cells as they burst out and release hydrolytic enzymes in the cytosol, where cells are heavily injured.
Functions of lysosomes:
They digest macromolecules by phagocytosis, endocytosis, or autophagy
They also take part in auto-cell lysis.
