The correct option is D Glyoxysomes
- In germinating seeds, fatty acids are degraded exclusively in the glyoxysomes.
- Glyoxylate cycle occurs in tissues rich in fats, such as those of germinating seeds; the enzymes involved in the cycle, which have not been found in mammals, are contained in organelles called glyoxysomes.
- So, option (C) is correct.
