Answer:

(D) phagocytic white blood cell is the correct answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

phagocytic white blood cell is best for studying lysosomes.

lysosomes are the cell organelles, its function is to digest the dead cells, bacteria and waste substance with help enzymes such as lipases, amylases, and proteases.

Phagocytic white blood cells are best for studying lysosomes because many white blood cells are found in lysosomes.

White blood cells function is to ingest or engulf the foreign materials and protect the body from the infection.

Answer:

(D) phagocytic white blood cell

Step-by-step explanation:

Lysosomes are cell organelles which contain hydrolytic or digestive enzymes. They engulf waste materials, dead cells, and microorganisms. They break them down them using digestive enzymes. Muscle cell, nerve cell s do not perform phagocytic or lysosomal activities and the bacterial cell is a prokaryotic cell which does not contain lysosomes. Therefore, white blood cells are phagocytic contains lysosomes. Due to the presence of lysosomes, white blood cells or leucocytes protect our body from infectious diseases.
