Which type of cell would have an abundance of peroxisomes?

A) White blood cell, a phagocyte
B) Mucus cell (secretes mucus)
C) Liver cells that detoxify hydrogen peroxide
D) Cardiac muscle cells (require large amounts of ATP)
E) Fibroblast (makes protein fibers)

Peroxisomes

Organelles found in virtually all eukaryotic cells, involved in the catabolism of very long chain fatty acids, branched chain fatty acids, bile acids, and xenobiotics.

Liver Cells

Hepatocytes, the main functional cells of the liver, involved in protein synthesis, detoxification, and metabolism.

White Blood Cell

Immune cells responsible for protection against infectious diseases and external invaders.
