olasank [31]

Answer:

it breaks glycogen into glucose

Explanation:

Lysosome is an organelle in the cells that is responsible for the production of digestive enzymes and thereby breaks down glycogen to glucose.

  • Lysosome is membrane bound organelle.
  • It is responsible for the secretion of digestive enzymes and breaking down of dead cells.

The nucleus is the control center of the cell and it contains the DNA.

Proteins are not created in the lysosome and they are not responsible for the movement of the cell mass.

Cooler denser air produces an area of _________pressure, and moves in under rising air.
umka21 [38]

Answer:

A few basic principles go a long way toward explaining how and why air moves: Warm air rising creates a low pressure zone at the ground. Air from the surrounding area is sucked into the space left by the rising air. Air flows horizontally at top of the troposphere; horizontal flow is called advection. The air cools until it descends. Where it reaches the ground, it creates a high pressure zone. Air flowing from areas of high pressure to low pressure creates winds. Warm air can hold more moisture than cold air. Air moving at the bases of the three major convection cells in each hemisphere north and south of the equator creates the global wind belts.
