On average we pay $180 for our utilities. Our gas bill fluctuates from around $30-50 in the summer to about $100-$120 in the winter. And we split our water/sewer bill 50%-50% with our landlord (most water/sewer is included in rent).
A lysosome (derived from the Greek words lysis, meaning to loosen, and soma, body) is a membrane-bound cell organelle found in most animal cells (they are absent in red blood cells).t pH 4.8, the interior of the lysosomes is acidic compared to the slightly basic cytosol (pH 7.2). The lysosome maintains this pH differential by pumping in protons (H + ions) from the cytosol across the membrane via proton pumps and chloride ion channels.
A lysosome contains hydrolase enzymes capable of breaking down wastes and old cells. They are found in animal cells. Lysosomes sometimes get the nickname suicide sac as their enzymes digest worn out cells and organelles and can also digest food that is in a food vacuole. The enzymes in a lysosome are acidic. Lysosomes were discovered by Christian de Duve in the 1960's--a...
