What might happen if some lysosomal enzymes are absent?​

Biology
1 answer:
murzikaleks [220]4 years ago
8 0

Answer:

Explanation:

The main fuction of lysosomal enzymes like lipases ,proteases, carbohydrases is to hydrolyse/digest various unwanted material in the cell. And sometimes to digest some nutrient in the cell.

These enzymes are capable of digesting carbohydrates,proteins,lipids and nucleic acids. Lysosomal enzymes are produced by a memberane bound cell organel called lysosome.

WHAT IF LYSOSOMAL ENZYMES ARE ABSENT:

==> If lysosomal enzymes are absent then build up of various unwanted substances increase to a abnormal level, which may increase toxicity in the cell.

==>build up of various dead or unwated cells in the body will increase,since lysosome have the capacity to digest its own cell.

==> absence of lysosome will will cause the cells to starve,since most of the nutrients in the cells are digested by lysosome enzyme.

==> Can cause a high risk of disease,since lysosome digest its own cell if it is infected with some microbial activity.

Microtubule – serves as a framework of the cell –cytoskeleton.<span>
</span>
Nucleus – the control center of each cell. It regulates, monitors and organizes the whole cell<span>

Since the pictures isn't given I can assume that it can be the microtubule, the microtubule is responsible for maintaing the shape and structure of the overall cell. It maintains homeostasis by permanently aiding the framework of the overall cell.
If it is the nucleus, the control center of a cell. It does a lot of functions in the cell, it helps maintain homeostasis by sending commands that the organelles do, supply energy, excrete or digest waste, regulate the movement of objects and cellular respiration, even cell division. It sustains the cell to be functional and proactive at the same time reactive to situations that is likely to occur.

you are a molecule of carbon choose a starting point in the carbon cycle and describe the process you would go through to move t
Dmitriy789 [7]

Answer:

The carbon cycle refers to the procedure in which the atoms of the carbon are recycled again and again on Earth. Carbon recycling occurs within the biosphere of the Earth and between the nonliving environment and living things.  

In case if I were a carbon, then I would have originated from fossil fuels and left the ground, through the process of photosynthesis I would have entered the trees, I would have consumed by animals, even I would have released from some of the trees or plants that dies, I would have also released from animals by the process of decomposition after their demise, and animals can even breathe me in out by the process of respiration.

How would homeostasis be affected if the cardiac muscle stopped contracting?
vodka [1.7K]

The heart is a muscle, therefore, if the cardiac muscles stopped contracting, the result would be the ceasing of heart function. That would lead to death, as blood wouldn't be pumped throughout the body. Homeostasis would therefore be interrupted.
