A) they are associated with synthesis and storage of lipids
B) they contain oxidising enzymes and promotes gluconeogenesis
C) they contain oxygenase a detoxification enzyme
D) They are not found in intact cells
Correct Answer: B
Solution :
Peroxisomes are small, membrane-enclosed organelles that contain enzymes involved in a variety of metabolic reactions, including several aspects of energy metabolism. Peroxisome contains oxidising enzymes and promote gluconeogenesis. The participation of this organelle affords the potential of alternative pathways for the conversion of triacylglycerols to glucose and for the conversion of amino acids and lactate to carbohydrate.
