Peroxisomes are mostly found in the liver and kidney because many things digested are detoxified through the live and kidney. Therefore, more peroxisomes have evolved into these organs for better detoxification.

Peroxisome found in animal cells?
Peroxisomes are found in all Eukaryotic cells, including plant and animla cells.
Is peroxisome found in plants or animals?
Yes, peroxisomes are present in both plant and animal cells.
Where is the enzyme catalase produced?
The major source of hydrogen peroxide in the cell is from the oxidation of flavin-linked oxidases: This takes place in the microbodies of plant and animal cells. Peroxisomes and glycoxisomes are microbodies found in the cells of plants and. fungi, whilst similar microbodies are found in animal cells, especially in liver and kidney tissues of mammals. There is also some evidence to suggest that catalase can be found outside of the peroxisomes, in the cytosol of the cell. Yeah,they are found in every mammal also. A long time ago, they were were thought to be in RBC but now they have realized the real truth.
Where is gluckokinase found?
liver, kidney, B-Cells of Pancreas
What type of cells has many peroxisomes?
Peroxisomes have a single membrane that surrounds the digestiveenzymesand dangerous byproducts of their work (hydrogen peroxide). The protein enzymes are usually created by lysosomes floating in the cell. They then insert the proteins into the peroxisome bubble.
When mitochondria are found near the surface of kidney cells the cells are probably?
using active transport
What cells are found in membranes?
Membranes surround cells. There are no cells found in membranes. Membranes are composed mostly of lipids.
What cell structure detoxifies alcohol?
smooth endoplasmic reticulum
What are the orangelles found in plant cells?
I am assuming you meant organelles...if so, the organelles found in plant cells are sort of like those found in animal cells except animal cells do not contain chloroplast organelles used in plants for photosynthesis. The organelles in plant cells include: nucleus, plastids, ribosomes, mitochondria, Golgi body, endoplasmic reticulum, vacuoles, and peroxisomes.
Which structure is found mostly in green plant cell but not in animal cells?
Vesicles, especially large and solitary ones, are mostly found in plant cells.
What uses oxygen to detoxify harmful substances?
Peroxisomes use oxygen to detoxify harmful substances. These organelles and microbodies are found in the vast majority of eukaryotic cells.
Is a peroxisosomes a plant or animal cell?
Simply, yes. Virtually all eukaryotic cells have peroxisomes.
