Question

when a cell becomes damaged or dies, which organelles disintegrate, releasing enzymes that break down the proteins and other organelles of the cell, in a self - destructive process called autolysis?
options: golgi apparatus, mitochondria, lysosomes, perocisomes, i dont know yet

Explanation:

Lysosomes contain hydrolytic enzymes. When a cell is damaged/dies, lysosomes disintegrate, releasing enzymes for autolysis (self - destruction) to break down cellular components. Golgi apparatus modifies proteins, mitochondria produce energy, and peroxisomes handle oxidative reactions—none fit autolysis.

Answer:

C. Lysosomes
