Food macromolecule digestion and producing ATP

The food macromolecule is engulfed by the process of endocytosis and a cell membrane is created  from pinching together the digestive enzymes.Then the food vacoule merges with the vesicle that contains lysosome, made by the ribisome in the rough endoplasmic reticulum(RER). this forms an enzyme , a molecule made out lysosomes. From the RER the enzyme is transported to the golgi apparatus to get packaged and modified and thus it becomes a functioning protein. From here the vesicles transport them to other cells where it is broken down and energy (ATP) is released to carry out various functions.
