Multiple Choice
Lysosomes are organelles responsible for the breakdown of macromolecules. Why is it useful to have the lysosome's reactions compartmentalized rather than allowing them to take place freely in the cytoplasm of the cell?
A) The lysosome's enzymes would break down cellular macromolecules that should remain intact.
B) If these reactions took place in the cytoplasm, their host cells would become prokaryotic.
C) The presence of lysosomes allows vesicles to form more quickly.
