The correct Answer is:
**Step-by-Step Solution:** 1. **Understanding the Question:** - The question asks about labilizers found on the membranes of lysosomes. Labilizers are substances that cause instability in membranes. 2. **Identifying the Options:** - The options given are: a) Cortisone and cortisol b) Cholesterol and heparin c) Testosterone and progesterone d) Cholesterol and progesterone 3. **Analyzing Each Option:** - **Option A: Cortisone and Cortisol** - Both are known to stabilize the lysosomal membrane. Therefore, this option is incorrect. - **Option B: Cholesterol and Heparin** - Cholesterol acts as a stabilizer for the lysosomal membrane, while heparin is an anticoagulant. This combination does not include a labilizer, making this option incorrect. - **Option C: Testosterone and Progesterone** - Testosterone is not typically classified as a labilizer, but progesterone is known to destabilize the lysosomal membrane. This means that this option has one labilizer, making it a potential correct answer. - **Option D: Cholesterol and Progesterone** - Cholesterol is a stabilizer, while progesterone is a labilizer. However, since cholesterol stabilizes the membrane, this option cannot be considered correct. 4. **Conclusion:** - The only option that includes two substances where one is a known labilizer is **Option C: Testosterone and Progesterone**. Therefore, this is the correct answer. 5. **Final Answer:** - The labilizers found on the membrane of lysosomes are **Testosterone and Progesterone**. ---
