PEROXISOMES have enzymes for peroxide biosynthesis.These occur in most of the animals and plants,but are quite common in photosynthetic cells where these perform photorespiration.They possess peroxide producing glycolate oxidase as well as peroxide destroying enzymes like catalase.

SPHAEROSOMES are unit membrane bound, spherical,refractile bodies which take part in storage and synthesis of fats.They contain hydrolytic enzymes and are believed to be plant lysosomes.They are produced from SER.

GLYOXISOMES originate from ER and are bounded by single membrane.They contain enzymes for the glyoxylate cycle through which fats are converted into carbohydrates.
