Answer:

Lysosomes are organelles that contain hydrolytic enzymes  (lysozymes) which are required for membrane degradation, thereby they may be important during the removal of the interdigital membrane.

Explanation:

Lysosome plays a critical function by digesting cellular components such as, in this case, the interdigital membrane. During mammal embryo development, the interdigital membrane is reabsorbed, it is a structure between the digits that appeared during evolution in aquatic animals. However, in terrestrial mammals, it is a vestigial structure leftover from their ancestors.
