How Is A Cell Protected From Degradation By Acid Hydrolases? Choose All That Apply.

a. Each cell contains only one lysosome, which limits potential damage from acid hydrolases. b. Acid hydrolases are optimally active at a pH lower than what is found in the cytoplasm. c. Acid hydrolases only degrade foreign proteins and DNA. d. Acid hydrolases are sequestered away from the cytoplasm by a lipid bilayer membrane. e. Acid hydrolases only degrade molecules containing a mannose-6-phosphate, which allows them to break down only what is targeted for degradation.
