Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
A series of pancake-like folded membranes that gather simple molecules and make into more complex substances; packages and transports
A
endoplasmic reticulum
B
Golgi bodies
C
vacuoles
D
lysosomes
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The golgi apparatus gathers simple molecules and combines them to make molecules that are more complex. It then takes those big molecules, packages them in vesicles, and either stores them for later use or sends them out of the cell.

Detailed explanation-2: -Endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is known as the maze of folded membranes where proteins and lipids are produced. The ER is a complex organelle composed of membranous flattened sacs, cylinders, and vesicles.

Detailed explanation-3: -The Golgi apparatus modifies, sorts, and packages different substances for secretion out of the cell, or for use within the cell. The Golgi apparatus is found close to the nucleus of the cell, where it modifies proteins that have been delivered in transport vesicles from the RER.

Detailed explanation-4: -endoplasmic reticulum (ER), in biology, a continuous membrane system that forms a series of flattened sacs within the cytoplasm of eukaryotic cells and serves multiple functions, being important particularly in the synthesis, folding, modification, and transport of proteins .
