Types of Micro-Bodies (With Diagram) | Cell Organelles

The following points highlight the two types of micro-bodies. The types are: 1. Peroxisomes 2. Glyoxysomes. Micro-Bodies: Type # 1. Peroxisomes: They are micro bodies which contain enzymes for peroxide biosynthe­sis. Peroxisomes were discovered by De Duve (1965) with the help of fractionation technique. The term was coined by De Duve in 1969. Peroxisomes are found in both plant and [...]
