Lysosomes are large, spherical organelles that contain enzymes. (acid hydrolases). They break up the food so it is easier to digest. They are found in animal cells, while in plant cells the same role...

What creates a lysosome? You'll have to visit the Golgi complex for that answer. A lysosome is basically a specialized vesicle that holds a variety of enzymes. The enzyme proteins are first created in the rough endoplasmic reticulum.

The interior of a lysosome is strongly acidic, and its enzymes are active at an acid pH. Lysosomes are found in all eukaryotic cells, but are most numerous in disease-fighting cells, such as leukocytes(white blood cells).

ORGANELLE DIAGRAM: LYSOSOME: In this picture, a lysosome appears as a golden sphere. Lysosomes originate from the trans surface of the Golgi and they contain a variety of powerful enzymes (hydrolases) that break down material.

Lysomes are membrane bound organelles, thought to be formed by Golgi bodies, which are loaded with strong hydrolitic enzymes to carry out intracellular digestion. When a lysome is formed, it is able to fuse with ... Lysomes carry out fuctions in both plant and animal cells. They also serve as part of the bodies defence system.
