Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Peroxisomes contain enzymes that break down fatty acids, amino acids, and toxins, as well as participate in other metabolic processes. Lysosomes also contain enzymes that break down molecules, but their function is more focused on digesting cellular waste and foreign substances. Golgi bodies, vacuoles, and rough ER do not primarily function in breaking down fatty acids, amino acids, and toxins.
