I'm like the family member that ruins everything but everyone needs and loves them. If I rupture, I will basically destroy the cell, but without me, the cell will die from excess waste build up. #OrganelleVote2019 #RooAPBio

I can be found in both plant and animal cells. I'm the eukaryote king. Prove me wrong. #OrganelleVote2019 #RooAPBio

I act as the stomach of the cell. Similar to how a human's stomach works, I use digestive enzymes, or acid hydrolases, to break down other worn-out organelles, engulfed viruses or bacteria, and food particles. #OrganelleVote2019 #RooAPBio

I guess you could say I'm like a cool grandpa? I was discovered in 1955 by the legend, Christian de Duve. He's the real homie. No cap. #OrganelleVote2019 #RooAPBio

Autophagy is the process I use to process obsolete material. If only I could use that on my opponents... #noteahere #itiswhatitis #OrganelleVote2019 #RooAPBio

Not only do I degrade polymers of biomolecules, I also regulate energy metabolism, cell signaling, repair the plasma membrane, and secretion as well. #TGIF #OrganelleVote2019 #RooAPBio

I know the thought of powerful digestive enzymes may be intimidating in terms of the effect on the other organelles, but, thankfully, all of my enzymes are concealed by a plasma membrane! #OrganelleVote2019 #RooAPBio

[Louis Lysosome III @apbiolysosome]

Fun fact of the day: my waste removal processes work due to the 50+ powerful digestive enzymes found inside of me! Intense, I know. #OrganelleVote2019 #RooAPBio

[Louis Lysosome III @apbiolysosome]

Without me here to regulate and remove the waste within a cell, the cell would be left to die. Think about that... #OrganelleVote2019 #RooAPBio

First official campaign tweet! My main goal is to keep the toxicity out of our cells! #notimeforthat #OrganelleVote2019 #RooAPBio
