Which of the following biomolecules are the components of lysosomes?

(a) Ribosomes and Matrix

(b) Amino acid chain and tRNA

(c) Phosphate esters and nucleases

(d) Glyco protein and Carbohydrates

(d) Glycoprotein and Carbohydrates

The key biomolecular components of lysosomes are glycoproteins and carbohydrates.are glycoproteins. Furthermore, the membrane surrounding the lysosome is heavily populated with unique, highly glycosylated membrane proteins (like LAMPs) that are crucial for its function and stability.

• Carbohydrates: The "glyco" part of glycoprotein refers to carbohydrate chains. These carbohydrate chains on the inner side of the lysosomal membrane form a protective layer called the glycocalyx, which shields the membrane from being digested by its own enzymes.
