Which cell organelles are involved in making lysosomes?

Which cell organelles are involved in making lysosomes? Correct Answer Golgi Apparatus

The correct answer is Golgi Apparatus.

Key Points

  • Golgi Apparatus:
    • The Golgi apparatus has multiple names such as Golgi complex or Golgi body.
    • It is found in all the eukaryotic cells, plants as well as animals.
    • They are membrane-bound organelle present in the cytosol of the cell. 
    • Its main function is the packaging and secretion of proteins.
    • It receives proteins from Endoplasmic Reticulum.
    • It packages it into membrane-bound vesicles, which are then transported to various destinations, such as lysosomes, plasma membrane or secretion.
    • It is also involved in making lysosomes.
    • They also take part in the transport of lipids and the formation of lysosomes.

Additional Information

  • Lysosomes: These are membrane-bound vesicular structures formed by the process of packaging in the Golgi apparatus.
  • These are also called ''Suicidal bags'' because of their phagocytic activity.
  • Lysosome keeps the cell clean by digesting any foreign material as well as worn-out cell organelles.
