So the mitochondria is not the only place in the animal cell where we create ATP. Paroxysomes can also create ATP by breaking down the fatty acids. Now, not only can we break down fatty acids inside Paroxysomes, we can also synthesize lipids, for example, cholesterol, inside our Paroxysomes. And another important function of the Paroxysome is to basically detoxify our cell from different types of toxins as well as drugs. So we have different types of protein enzymes found inside the Paroxosome that basically function to break down fatty acids to create lipids such as cholesterol, as well as detoxify our cell break down toxin as well as drugs such as, for example, alcohol so Paroxosomes are especially important in the cells found in the liver inside our bodies. Now, what exactly is the major difference between a Lysosome and our Paroxysome?
