Explanation:

Brief Explanations
  • Centrioles are involved in cell division (formation of spindle fibers), not detoxification.
  • Nucleoli are responsible for ribosome production within the nucleus, not detoxification.
  • Peroxisomes contain enzymes that break down harmful substances like hydrogen peroxide (produced in cellular reactions) and detoxify the cell from free radicals and other harmful chemicals.
  • Chromosomes are structures carrying genetic material (DNA) and are not involved in detoxification.

Answer:

C. peroxisomes.
