Which cell type lacks a nucleus what functions would this cell be unable to carry out?
The mature red blood cell lacks a nucleus, and so is unable to reproduce.
What would happen if peroxisomes didn't exist?
In the absence of peroxisomes, unwanted proteins would accumulate in the cell and the cell would have to figure out a way of getting rid of them
What is the process of cell removing large waste product?
peroxisomes. peroxisomes are organelles that collect the toxic peroxides that are the unavoidable by-products of chemical reactions within the cell.
What are the vesicles that function in the metabolism of fatty acids in a cell?
peroxisomes
What organelle in a cell would neutralize poisons?
Endoplasmic Reticulum (SER)
Which cell type lacks a nucleus what functions would this cell be unable to carry out?
The mature red blood cell lacks a nucleus, and so is unable to reproduce.
What do peroxisomes do for the cell?
Peroxisomes contain enzymes which metabolize hydrogen peroxide within the cell, hence the name.
What would a cell with abundant peroxisomes most likely be involved in?
A cell with abundant peroxisomes would most likely be involved in detoxification activities. Peroxisomes are also known as microbodies that are present in most eukaryotic cells.
What is a liver cell that detoxifies carcinogens?
Peroxisomes
Which enzyme converts hydrogen peroxide to water and oxygen?
The peroxizome contains catalase, an enzyme which facilitates the decomposition of H2O2 to H2O and O.
What would happen if peroxisomes didn't exist?
In the absence of peroxisomes, unwanted proteins would accumulate in the cell and the cell would have to figure out a way of getting rid of them
What functions isolate particular chemical activities from the rest of the cell?
Peroxisomes isolate particular chemical activities from the rest of the cell. Peroxisomes are a type of microbody that helps the body break down large molecules and detoxify hazardous substances.
What cell structure detoxifies alcohol?
smooth endoplasmic reticulum
What is the process of cell removing large waste product?
peroxisomes. peroxisomes are organelles that collect the toxic peroxides that are the unavoidable by-products of chemical reactions within the cell.
Functions of Peroxisomes?
Peroxisomes protect the cell from peroxide(type of toxic waste) by turning it into oxygen and food! I hope this helped, I'm just a grade 8 working on a cell project looking for some answers and thought i'd try and help you out:)
Which cell structure detoxifies alcohol hydrogen peroxide?
Peroxisomes
What cell structure controls the conversion of H2O2 to water?
Peroxisomes.
