You are a Lysosome!

Lysosomes:
- Common in animal cells.
- Helps cell digest proteins.
- Cleanup crew of the cell.
- Contain powerful chemicals that digest nutrient molecules in the cell.
- When other organelles stop working, the lysosomes break down and recycle the old cell parts so they can be used again.
- The chemicals in the lysosomes only break down unhealthy cell parts. - ------ Membrane surrounds the lysosomes to stop them from destroying the rest of the cell

Hope I helped! :)
