Lysosomes are involved in digestion (via endocytosis), the removal and recycling of cellular components (autophagy), and self-destruction (autolysis) after cell death.
1. **Digestion** (endocytosis) 2. **Removal** - recycle small molecules for resynthesis (autophagy) 3. **Self-destruction**: digests remains (autolysis) after cellular death
