Step 1: Assertion (A) is correct. Hydrolytic enzymes are indeed present in lysosomes. These enzymes help in breaking down various substrates inside the lysosomes. They are essential for digesting macromolecules, which are broken down into simpler compounds for reuse or excretion. Step 2: Reason (R) is incorrect. Although fatty acid catabolism occurs in the cell, it primarily takes place in the mitochondria through a process called beta-oxidation, not in the lysosomes. Lysosomes are involved in the breakdown of various substances, but fatty acid catabolism is not one of their primary functions.
Step 3: Since assertion (A) is correct but reason (R) is incorrect, the correct option is (3) A is correct but R is incorrect.
