Suppose that a patient is diagnosed with a new disease caused by the buildup of waste material in the body’s cells. Which organelle is most likely malfunctioning in the patient’s cells?
the Golgi apparatus
lysosomes
ribosomes
the endoplasmic reticulum

Lysosomes are the membrane bound organelles that have hydrolytic enzymes. Lysosomes are formed from the enzymes rich vesicles that bud off from the Golgi apparatus. Function of lysosomes is to remove the wear and tear parts of cells and waste material from the cells. Malfunctioning of lysosomes may lead to buildup of waste material in cells.
