Correct Answer: Option D
Explanation:
Lysosomes contain about 40 types of hydrolytic enzymes (hydrolases) like proteases, lipases, nucleases, glycosidases, which digest macromolecules. They function in acidic pH (5.0). Oxidoreductases catalyze oxidation-reduction, transferases transfer groups, isomerases catalyze isomerization. Lysosomes are involved in autophagy, phagocytosis, and programmed cell death. Their rupture leads to autolysis, hence called 'suicide bags'.
