Peroxisomes have

  • ribosome

  • DNA

  • catalase enzyme

  • centrosome


C.

catalase enzyme

Peroxisomes (microbodies) are small rounded organelles found free floating in the cell cytoplasm. These structures contain at least 50 enzymes and are separated from the cytoplasm by a lipid bilayer single membrane barrier. They are called peroxisomes because they all produce hydrogen peroxide. Peroxisomes produce large amount of the enzyme catalase that breakdown hydrogen peroxide to water and oxygen.
