Statement II: These are golgian vacuoles.

• A. Both the statements are false
• B. Both the statements are true
• C. Statement I is true and statement II is false
• D. Statement I is flase and statement II is true

Answer 1

Answer: (B)

Lysosomes are membrane-bound organelles that contain digestive enzymes that break down proteins, lipids, carbohydrates, and nucleic acids. They are important in processing the contents of vesicles taken in from outside the cell. It is crucial to maintain the integrity of the lysosomal membranes because the enzymes they contain can digest cellular components as well.
Golgian vacuoles are expanded part of the cisternae which have become modified to form vacuoles. The vacuoles develop from the concave or maturing face. Golgian vacuoles contain amorphous or granular substance. Some of the golgian vacuoles function as a lysosomes.
