which animal cell organelle contains enzymes that transfer hydrogen from various substrates to oxygen?
○ lysosome
○ mitochondrion
○ golgi apparatus
○ vacuole
○ peroxisome

Explanation:

Lysosomes digest waste with hydrolytic enzymes; mitochondria produce ATP via cellular respiration but do not primarily transfer hydrogen from substrates to oxygen as their core defining function here; the Golgi apparatus processes and packages proteins; vacuoles in animal cells handle storage and waste; peroxisomes contain oxidase enzymes that transfer hydrogen from substrates to oxygen, producing hydrogen peroxide as a byproduct.

Answer:

O peroxisome
