For 10 points, name this cell organelle which, as its name suggests, breaks down a compound with formula H2O2.
The synthesis of plasmalogen occurs in this structure; a deficiency of that synthesis causes Zellweger's syndrome. In cells, beta oxidation metabolizing fatty acids with more than 22 carbons begins in this structure and ends once it reaches 8 carbons, only to be resumed by the mitochondria. One enzyme located in this organelle called catalase is needed for a disproportionation reaction that produces oxygen gas and water from a certain starting product.
