Answer:

Its in the animal cells only

Step-by-step explanation:

just trust me we went over this in class but if you want an explanation:

The plant cell has a cell wall, chloroplasts, plastids, and a central vacuole—structures not found in animal cells. Plant cells do not have lysosomes or centrosomes.

Answer:

The answer is C- Lysosomes are present in both bacterial and animal cells.

Step-by-step explanation:

Lysosomes contain digestive enzymes inside them, which when released break down damaged cell parts. These enzymes are acidic in nature and are separated from other organelles with the help of a membrane.

Lysosomes help in killing bacteria and virus invading the cell body. Lysosomes also take part in the process of cell death known as 'apoptosis'. This happens only when a certain cell is beyond repair.

Lysosomes are present in plant cells, animal cells, bacterial and yeast cells.
