In cells, which of the following can catalyze reactions involving hydrogen peroxide, provide cellular energy, and make proteins, in that order? Correct Answer Peroxisomes, mitochondria, and ribosomes
A Peroxisomes catalyze reactions that produce hydrogen peroxide, ribosomes are involved in protein synthesis, and mitochondria contain enzymes involved in cellular respiration. Eliminate (B) and (D) because lysosomes are the sites of degradation; they contain hydrolytic enzymes but do not produce hydrogen peroxide. Choice (C) is incorrect, as the Golgi apparatus sorts and packages substances that are destined to be secreted out of the cell. Interestingly, O2 concentration generally doesn't play an important role in regulating respiration.
