Q. Assertion : Lysosomes are capable of digesting carbohydrates, proteins, lipids and nucleic acids
Reason : Lysosomes are rich in hydrolytic enzymes like lipases, proteases and carbohydrases

Cell : The Unit of Life

Solution:

Lysosomes are small vesicles which are bounded by a single membrane and contain hydrolytic enzymes. The important enzymes are acid phosphatases, sulphatases, proteases, peptidases, nucleases, lipases and carbohydrases. These enzymes are capable of digesting carbohydrates, proteins, lipids and nucleic acids
