MICROBODIES
These are the small, single membrane-bound cell organelles that are involved in the absorption of molecular oxygen and oxidation.
Glyoxysomes:

The key enzymes of the glyoxylate cycle - isocitrate lyase and malate synthase are
present in the glyoxysomes. They are responsible for the breakdown of fatty acids and their conversion into sugars through gluconeogenesis
