CELL ANATOMY Microbodies Brief History Microbodies were first discovered and named in 1954 by Rhodin. De Duve chose the name of Peroxisome because of its relationship with hydrogen peroxide. In 1967‚ Breidenbach and Beevers were the first to isolate microbodies from plants‚ which they named Glyoxysomes because they were found to contain enzymes of the Glyoxylate cycle.

ANATOMY & PHYSIOLOGY of the EYE Even though the eye is small‚ only about 1 inch in diameter‚ it serves a very important function -- the sense of sight. Vision is by far the most used of the five senses and is one of the primary means that we use to gather information from our surroundings. More than 75% of the information we receive about the world around us consists of visual information. The eye is often compared to a camera. Each gathers light and then transforms that light into a "picture
