The organelle that cleans the cell are lysosomes. They also breakdown food molecules into a form that the rest of the cell can use. Furthermore, the breakdown old organelles that have lost their usefulness.

What breaks down food wastes and worn out cell parts?
A decomposer breaks down dead organisms for nutrients.
Osmosis is a special form of?
Osmosis is a special form of diffusion in that it brings water into a cell, rather than nutrients & other substances.
What breaks down nutrients in a cell?
no cells do not break down nutrients. digestive enzymes do and depending on where or what in the body you want to break down depends on what kind. for example in the mouth there is amylase enzyme which breaks down starch or pepsin in the stomach which breaks down protein. trypsin and erepsin also break down protein but in the small intestine. hope this is ok
What is a cell that protects the body by eating invading cells is a?
A phagocyte protects the body by eating harmful substances before they can cause illness. These substances may be bacteria, foreign particles, or dead cells.
What keeps the cytoplasm inside and allows nutrients in and waste products out?
The cell membrane and cell wall keep the cytoplasm inside a cell and allows nutrients and waste products out, in fact, the cell membranes only allows what they want through, if the substance is alien to them, it will be refrained.
What part of the cell breaks down substances to produce energy for the cell?
Mitochondria
What breaks down substances in a cell?
The lysosome.
What part of the cell digests or breaks down substances into simpler parts?
lysosome.
What breaks down harmful substances that are no longer needed by a cell?
The smooth endoplasmic reticulum
What cell organelle is responsible for allowing nutrients and water in and out of the cell?
The cell membrane, also known as the plasma membrane, is responsible for allowing nutrients and water in and out of the cell. It acts as a selectively permeable barrier that regulates the passage of substances, allowing essential molecules to enter the cell while preventing harmful substances from entering.
What is called the powerhouse of a cell because it breaks down nutrients to help make the major energy source of the cell?
ribosomes
What substances must pass through a cells's membrane for the cell to continue to function?
water and nutrients.
What is in the cytoplasm of cell digest foreign material and worn out cells?
Lysosomes and peroxisomes - These organelles are the recycling center of the cell. They digest foreign bacteria that invade the cell, rid the cell of toxic substances, and recycle worn-out cell components.
What is the importance of pectin in plant cell walls?
To protect the cell contents ,and to control what substances are coming in and out of the cell.
What is in the cytoplasm of cells digest foreign material and worn out cells?
Lysosomes and peroxisomes - These organelles are the recycling center of the cell. They digest foreign bacteria that invade the cell, rid the cell of toxic substances, and recycle worn-out cell components.
The immune system respond to agent cell or substances that are foreign or nonself collectively called?
antibodies
Is producing cellular nutrients a function of cell membrane?
No, its function is just to act as a partially permeable membrane to control the movements of substances in and out of the cell.
