Question

1. the function of the ______ is to help the cell get rid of waste.

○ lysosome

○ cell wall

○ golgi apparatus

○ mitochondria

Explanation:

To solve this, we analyze each option:

• Lysosome: Contains enzymes to break down waste and cellular debris, helping the cell get rid of waste.
• Cell wall: Provides structure and support (in plant/fungal cells), not waste removal.
• Golgi apparatus: Modifies, sorts, and packages proteins/lipids, not primary waste removal.
• Mitochondria: Produces energy (ATP), not waste removal.

So lysosome is the correct choice.

Answer:

A. lysosome
