Which one of the following statements about lysosomes is incorrect? If one of the many types of acid hydrolases found in the lys

osome is nonfunctional, a lysosomal storage disease can develop. Lysosomes are acidic because they contain acid hydrolases. Lysosomes release the monomeric building blocks (like amino acids and nucleotides) into the cell. Autophagosomes form in the cytosol around old or broken down organelles; later, the autophagic vesicle fuses with a lysosome. Resident lysosomal proteins display a mannose-6-phosphate group which targets them to a late endosome.

Answer:

B. Lysosomes are acidic because they contain acid hydrolases.

Explanation:

Lysosomes are small cell organelles that float outside nucleus. Lysosomes are present in the cytosol of the cells.

Lysosomes are acidic in nature having pH below 5 because of proton pumping through the plasma membrane to maintain this acidic pH.

This acidic nature of lysosomes play a role in fight against diseases.

Hence, the correct option is "B".

The protoplasm and cytoplasm of a plant are interchangeable terms.TrueFalse
Svetllana [295]
No, they are not interchangeable because p<span>rotoplasm is the living content of a cell that is surrounded by a plasma membrane (cell membrane). Protoplasm is composed of a mixture of small molecules such as ions, amino acids, monosaccharides and water, and macro-molecules such as nucleic acids, proteins, lipids and polysaccharides. In eukaryotes the protoplasm surrounding the cell nucleus is known as the cytoplasm and that inside the nucleus as the nucleoplasm. </span>
