Which of the following organelles contain enzymes involved in cellular digestion? select one: a. lysosomes and chloroplasts b. lysosomes and golgi apparatus c. lysosomes and peroxisomes d. chloroplasts and rough endoplasmic reticulum e. peroxisomes and smooth endoplasmic reticulum

The organelles involved in cellular digestion are lysosomes and peroxisomes. Answer c.

Explanation:

Lysosomes are small spherical organelles, enclosed by a single membrane; and, so as peroxisomes, they contain digestive enzymes. The difference between them is mainly about content and density, so under particular centrifugation conditions, they sediment in different fractions.

The function in both organelles is the same: to break down components such as, fatty acids, amino acids, nutrient molecules and, old or damaged structures or components of the very own cell; to provide nutrients for the cell.

as the gila monster consumes the eggs or young of the desert cottontail and gambel's quail, thus its main food supply is only accessible for a restricted time duration every year. however, for this, the gila monsters exhibit three adaptations, which elevate their survival rate in the desert condition.  

first, is that they possess huge bodies, and can consume greater concentrations of food during a small period. secondly, they require to feed infrequently as they can accumulate fat in their tails. ultimately, their rate of metabolism is very low, so that they can burn their reservoirs of fat gradually.
