Solution
The correct option is B Glyoxysomes
Glyoxysomes are microbodies which occur only in the fat rich plant cell, where they take part in β-oxidation of fats and perform glyoxylate cycle. It also possesses catalase enzyme. In fat storing plant cells, first fats are converted to carbohydrates which are then metabolized. This process is called gluconeogenesis or synthesis of glucose from a new source, i.e., fats.So, the correct option is 'B'.
