a) the catabolic mechanism that delivers cellular components to lysosomes, where they are degraded

b) Autophagy protects the cell from the harmful or lethal effects of damaged or unnecessary proteins and organelles

c) During starvation, the autophagic breakdown and recycling of cellular components also

ensure cellular survival by maintaining cellular energy levels
