I can break down fatty acid to succinate__________?

Correct answer: B. Glyoxisome

  • A. Peroxisome
  • B. Glyoxisome
  • C. Lysosome
  • D. Golgi bodies

Explanation

Glyoxisomes contain enzymes of the glyoxylate cycle, which allows plant cells to convert fatty-acid products into succinate and other compounds. Peroxisomes also participate in fatty-acid breakdown, so students may choose them, but the conversion toward succinate is specifically associated with glyoxisomes.
