SCI 220 WEEK 3 QUIZ

NIGHTINGALE SCI220 ANATOMY WEEK 3 QUIZ

QuestionAnswer
Lysosomes perform autophagy. This means that they: break down proteins and cytoplasm that are not needed by “self eating.” are the protein-destroying organelle in the cell. synthesize ATP. provide an internal supporting framework. break down proteins and cytoplasm that are not needed by “self eating.”
