  • The sac-like structures in a cell surrounded by membrane are called lysosomes.
  • They keep the cells clean by digesting and breaking the outside materials like bacteria, food entering the cell or worn-out cell organelles into small pieces.
  • They can digest these organic materials due to the presence of strong digestive enzymes that can brreak down organic compounds. Therefore, lysosome is also known as a suicide sac.
  • Many scientists believe that lysosomes are not present in plant cells and their function of lysosomes in plants is performed by vacuole.
