Which of the following membrane-enclosed organelles contains several oxidases that are involved in oxidation of fatty acids and amino acids during normal metabolism and in detoxification of chemicals like alcohol in the liver?
a) peroxisomes
b) mitochondria
c) proteasome
d) ribosomes
e) lysosomes

Explanation: This kind of membrane enclosed organelles has a mainly function that is the oxidation, this source manages to break fatty acids and during normal metabolism, they also has many enzimes like d-aminoacid oxidases, is another of their functions. Further, the catalase enzime (another enzime which is inside peroxisomes) manages the detoxification of chemicals like alcohol from alcoholic drinks (catalases transform the H2O2, which is toxic, into H2O to detoxificate the liver).
