Practice question
Question
In which organelle of seeds are stored oils converted to fatty acids and glycerol during germination?
Explanation
The principle of enzyme catalysis and lipid structure explains that substrate affinity, transition state stabilization and phospholipid composition govern function. Hence glyoxysome fits best because it reflects catalytic efficiency and membrane organization, as documented in authoritative sources on biochemistry.
