The digestive enzymes inside lysosomes are made by:

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is  option 1  i.e. rough endoplasmic reticulum .

 The digestive enzymes inside lysosomes are made by the rough endoplasmic reticulum (RER).

  • The RER has ribosomes on its surface, which synthesize hydrolytic enzymes (proteins).

  • These enzymes are then sent to the Golgi apparatus for further modification, sorting, and packaging.

  • Finally, they are enclosed in vesicles to form lysosomes.

🧪 These enzymes are crucial for breaking down unwanted materials inside the cell, making lysosomes the cell’s “waste disposal system.”
