- Mitochondria
- Glyoxysomes
- Lysosome
Hide Solution
Verified By Collegedunia
The Correct Option is C
Solution and Explanation
Glyoxysomes are specialised peroxisomes found in plants (particularly in the fat storage tissues of germinating seeds) and also in filamentous fungi. It helps to degrade lipids, particularly in germinating seeds, for the production of sugar. Seeds that contain fats and oils include corn, soybean, sunflower, peanut and pumpkin.

Cell: The Unit of Life
- A cell is derived as the functional and structural unit of life. Every cell is surrounded by a cell membrane that dissects the external and internal environments of the cell. The interior environment of a cell is called the cytoplasm.
- It carries cellular machinery and structural elements. The nucleus is present in the center of the cell, which includes all the hereditary information of an organism. Some of the molecules present in the cell are protein, carbohydrates, starch, and sugar.
