Peroxisomes are not plant or animal cells. They are organelles found in both plant and animal cells.

Here's why:

* Organelles are the functional units within a cell. Think of them like tiny organs that carry out specific jobs.

* Peroxisomes are small, membrane-bound organelles that play roles in various metabolic processes, such as breaking down fatty acids and detoxifying harmful substances.

So, while peroxisomes are present in both plant and animal cells, they are not cells themselves. They are components within cells.
