Question

Which cell organelle is known as the ‘suicide bags of a cell’?

A.

Lysosome

B.

Nucleus

C.

Mitochondrio

D.

Centrosome

Correct option is A

  • The lysosome is known as the ‘suicide bags’ of a cell because it contains digestive enzymes that can break down cellular components.
  • If a cell is damaged or no longer needed, the lysosome can release these enzymes, leading to the cell’s breakdown or self-destruction, a process known as autolysis.

Information Booster

  • Nucleus: The nucleus is the control center of the cell, storing genetic material and regulating cell functions like growth and reproduction.
  • Mitochondrion: The mitochondrion produces energy (ATP) through cellular respiration and plays a role in regulating cell death, contributing to energy supply.
  • Centrosome: The centrosome organizes microtubules during cell division, helping in chromosome movement and cell structure organization.
