Lysosomes are involved in breaking down waste materials and cellular debris but not specifically using oxygen for detoxification as their main function. Kidney cells and liver cells are whole - cell types, not vesicles, and their detoxification processes are more complex and not described as simple vesicles using oxygen for detoxification.
