vesicles of digestive enzymes
View Full Document. Lysosomes are vesicles that contain digestive enzymes. These can fuse with vesicles containing extracelluar material or old organelles, causing the contents to be degraded. Peroxisomes are a subclass of microbodies that carry out oxidative metabolism that generates peroxides. The isolation of these enzymes in vesicles protects the rest of the cell from the very reactive chemistry occurring inside. Vacuoles are membrane-bounded structures that have a variety of roles ranging from storage to cell growth in plants.
