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

A

Both Assertion and Reason are true and Reason is correct explanation of the assertion.

B

Both Assertion and Reason are true but Reason is not the correct explanation of the assertion.

C

Assertion is true, but Reason is false.

D

Assertion is false, but Reason is true.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A
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.
