Organelle Project 

Lysosome is an organelle found in the cytoplasm. The function of the lysosome is to digest bacteria and break down lipids, carbohydrates, and proteins to be used by the cell, Also, a key component of the lysosome is that it breaks down organelles that outlived their usefulness. Golgi Apparatus interacts with lysosomes by making their digestive enzymes. Interestingly, lysosomes that fail to work are cause of disease. As stated earlier, the purpose of the lysosomes is to break down useless items.
