Question

Lysosomes help in the process of photorespiration. Lysosomes have acidic enzymes.

• A. If both Assertion and Reason are true and the Reason is a correct explanation of the Assertion
• B. If both Assertion and Reason are true, but Reason is not a correct explanation of the Assertion
• C. If Assertion is true, but the Reason is false
• D. If Assertion is false and Reason is true

Answer 1

Answer: (D)

If Assertion is false and Reason is true

Answer 2

Lysosomes are found in animal cells whereas photorespiration is the process that occurs in plant cell. Lysosomes are small vesicles which are bounded by a single membrane and contain hydrolytic enzymes in the form of minute crystalline or semicrystalline that granules of 5-8 nm. They are also called acid hydrolases because these digestive enzymes usually function in acidic medium or pH less than 7.
