Question
which of the following cell organelles possesses oxidase enzymes that function in neutralizing harmful free radicals? answer transport vesicle peroxisome mitochondrion lysosome centriole i dont know yet
Brief Explanations
To solve this, we analyze each option:
- Transport vesicle: Transports materials, no oxidase enzymes for free radicals.
- Peroxisome: Contains oxidase enzymes that break down harmful free radicals (like hydrogen peroxide).
- Mitochondrion: Produces ATP, not for neutralizing free radicals with oxidase in this context.
- Lysosome: Contains hydrolytic enzymes for digestion, not oxidase for free radicals.
- Centriole: Involved in cell division, no role in neutralizing free radicals.
So the correct organelle is Peroxisome.
