Can you Google the word Lysosomes?

First, which organelle in the cell contains the most hydrolytic enzymes? The answer is lysosomes. Lysosomes contains hydrolytic enzymes to digest and eliminate worn-out organelles and for extracellular digestive enzymes like pepsin, amylase and lipase, they contain hydrolytic enzymes to digest food particles. Thus, lysosomes yield the most in terms of cellular activities in that particular mammalian tissues, which is composed of many similar cells.

 

hydro means water, lytic (lysis) means break down. Complex nutrients undergo hydrolysis to form simpler molecules that are readily absorbed by the body. Thus hydrolytic enzymes catalyze the process of digestion. Mitochondria provide the energy needed for digestion. Nucleus control the activity while ribosomes which are involved in synthesis of protein are inactive because the enzymes produced are already in action-digest/hydrolyses food. No new proteins are needed.
