In this article we will discuss about:- 1. Meaning of Lysosomes in Cell 2. Structure of Lysosomes in Cell 3. Function. Meaning of Lysosomes in Cell: Lysosomes are ultra structural particles of the cell containing hydrolytic enzymes responsible for digestion. Though these are common in animal cell, but in plants these are found in the lower groups, such as euglenoids, [...]
In this article we will discuss about:- 1. Types of Plastids in Cell 2. Structure of Chloroplastid 3. Origin 4. Function. Types of Plastids in Cell: Plastids may be coloured or colourless and are of three types. The leucoplasts are the colourless plastids principally serving the purpose of storage. On the basis of nature of storage compound, leucoplastids are amyloplasts [...]
Quick Notes on Endoplasmic Reticulum! Structure of Endoplasmic Reticulum in Cell: Structurally the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) consists of cisternae, tubules and vesicles (Fig. 2.42). The cisternae are broad, flat, membrane-bound spaces arranged parallel to each other to form lamellae, which are connected with each other. The tubules are 50-1OOA in diameter. The vesicles or sacs are membrane- bound, isolated globose [...]
