Polymer Electrolyte Membrane (PEM) fuel cells used in automobiles-also called Proton Exchange Membrane fuel cells-use hydrogen fuel and oxygen from the air to produce electricity. The diagram to the right shows how a PEM fuel cell works.
Most fuel cells designed for use in vehicles produce less than 1.16 volts of electricity-far from enough to power a vehicle. Therefore, multiple cells must be assembled into a fuel cell stack. The potential power generated by a fuel cell stack depends on the number and size of the individual fuel cells that comprise the stack and the surface area of the PEM.

What cell structure controls the conversion of H2O2 to water?
Peroxisomes.
Is H2O2 a chemical compound or an element?
H2O2 (hydrogen peroxide) is a compound.
H2O2 has an oxidizing and reducing nature?
H2O2 oxidize into Oxygen.It reduce into water.
What converts h2o2 to water?
Expose to sunlight simply.It will turn H2O2 to water.
How do living cells produce H2O2?
Yes,they do produce H2O2.They are broken by catalase enzyme.
What part of the plant cell protects the cell from its own toxic chemical hydrogen peroxide?
Peroxisosomes are responsible in detoxifying H2O2.H2O2 into H2O and O2.
What cell structure controls the conversion of H2O2 to water?
Peroxisomes.
What does the peroxisome do for the plant cell?
They break down H2O2 into water.Engage in the photorespiration.
What are the functions of peroxisomes in an animal cell?
They break down H2O2 into water.Engage in the photorespiration.They are main.
What does peroxisom do in a plant cell?
Help degrade oxygenated water H2O2), which is highly reactive with some biomolecules. Plants produce way more H2O2 than we do.
Can the cell of an animal survive with out its peroxisome?
H2O2 will accumilate in cell.They are highly poisonus.
How much does pure hydrogen peroxide the fuel cost?
Hydrogen Peroxide is not a fuel. It is an oxidising agent. Chemical formula H2O2.
Can Hydrogen peroxide pass through a cell membrane?
yes, H2O2 passes through cell membrane through passive transport.
What is the function of peroxisome in a cell?
They break down H2O2 into water.They involve detoxification in liver.Engage in the photorespiration.
What is a peroxisome in an animal cell?
It is a small sac like organell.It breaks down H2O2 mainly.
What is the peroxisome job in a cell?
They break down H2O2 into water.They involve detoxification in liver.Engage in the photorespiration.
Does liver contain an enzyme which breaks down H2o2?
H2O2 (Hydrogen Peroxide) is broken down by Catalase [an enzyme of the Peroxidase family], produced by every living animal cell. So yes.
