A Correct answer
Explanation

Lysosomes are membrane-bound organelles that contain digestive enzymes called hydrolases. These enzymes break down various biomolecules (proteins, lipids, carbohydrates, nucleic acids) through hydrolysis. Ribosomes are for protein synthesis, mesosomes are bacterial membrane invaginations, and peroxisomes contain oxidases, not hydrolases.
