Peroxisomes are the microbodies which help in detoxification of harmful substances like Hydrogen peroxide which is often produced during the metabolism.
As we know liver acts as the ditoxifying organ, so peroxisomes is likely to be present in the Liver cells rather than RBC which plays no role in metabolism.
