Question

which of the following cell organelles helps in photorespiration? why?
a. peroxisome
b. sphaerosome
c. dictyosome
d. glyoxysome

Answer 1

a. peroxisomes

Peroxisome: Peroxisomes are membrane-bound packets of oxidative enzymes. In plant cells, peroxisomes play a variety of roles including converting fatty acids to sugar and assisting chloroplasts in photo respiration. In animal cells, peroxisomes protect the cell from its own production of toxic hydrogen peroxide.
