The organelles involved in the detoxification of drugs and poisons in the liver cells are:
- A
Smooth Endoplasmic Reticulum
- B
Rough Endoplasmic Reticulum
- C
Golgi Apparatus
- D
Lysosomes
Smooth endoplasmic reticulum in liver cells of vertebrates helps in detoxifying poisons and drugs. It contains enzymes that catalyze a number of reactions.
Smooth endoplasmic reticulum in the liver cells of vertebrates helps detoxify poisons and drugs. It contains enzymes that catalyze a number of reactions.
The rough endoplasmic reticulum plays a central role in the synthesis and export of proteins and glycoproteins.
Golgi apparatus are used for modification, assembly, or processing of carbohydrates and proteins into glycoproteins, packaging of glycoproteins, or other synthesised materials.
Liver lysosomes play an important role in intrahepatic movement and affect the biliary excretion of absorbed Mn.
