What is the function of the lysosome in an animal cell?

• Stores food and water.

• Processes and packages materials for the cell.

• Contains digestive enzymes that destroy damaged organelles and invaders.

• Helps make protein for the cell.

What distinguishes the smooth endoplasmic reticulum (Smooth E.R.) from the rough endoplasmic reticulum?

• The smooth E.R. has ribosomes on it.

• The smooth E.R. breaks down food to produce energy.

• The smooth E.R. surrounds the nucleus.

• The smooth E.R. does not have ribosomes.
