<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

To detoxify various drugs in the liver

To break down proteins and phospholipids to produce ATP

<h3><u>Explanation</u>;</h3>
  • Peroxisomes are organelles in the cell that are membrane bound and contain enzymes crucial for metabolic activity.
  • Peroxisomes break down fatty acids to use as cellular fuel & detoxify harmful compounds in liver (enzymes transfer H from compounds to O producing hydrogen peroxide H2O2). This toxic by product is converted to water by other enzymes (importance of compartmentalization)

Meiosis occurs in a series of different phases and creates genetically unique reproductive cells.
Lubov Fominskaja [6]

Answer:

Meiosis occurs in a series of different phases and creates genetically unique reproductive cells. The process which helps make meiotic cells genetically different and occurs during prophase I, but not during prophase II, is crossing over (C). Crossing over is the exchange of genetic material between two homogenous chromosomes. It is one of the final phases of prophase I. This process is called synapsis. It occurs when the matching regions on the matching chromosomes break and then reconnect to the other chromosome .
