Lysosomes are formed by which organelle?
- A. Nucleolus
- B. Golgi apparatus
- C. Rough endoplasmic reticulum
- D. Centriole
Explanation
Hydrolytic enzymes are made on the rough endoplasmic reticulum but the Golgi apparatus packages and buds them off as lysosomes, after tagging them so they are sorted correctly. This is why the Golgi is described as the packaging and dispatch organelle. The nucleolus assembles ribosomal subunits and centrioles organise the spindle.
