Which cell organelle has a central core of a crystalline material called a nucleoi composed of urate oxidase crystals?
 

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is option 3 i.e. Peroxisome

  • The cell organelle with a central core of a crystalline material called urate oxidase crystals is the peroxisome.
  • Peroxisomes are membrane-bound organelles found in eukaryotic cells, and they play a role in various metabolic processes, including the breakdown of uric acid by urate oxidase.
  • These crystals of urate oxidase can be found within the peroxisomes and assist in the metabolism of uric acid, a waste product in humans and some other animals.
