This organelle moves substances within the cell and has pipelike structures (Analogy:city buses or transportation vehicles)
A
endoplasmic reticulum
B
vacuole
C
mitochondria
D
lysosome
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Transport vesicles are able to move molecules between locations inside the cell. For example, transport vesicles move proteins from the rough endoplasmic reticulum to the Golgi apparatus.

Detailed explanation-2: -Endoplasmic Reticulum is mainly responsible for the transportation of proteins and other carbohydrates to another organelle, which includes lysosomes, Golgi apparatus, plasma membrane, etc.

Detailed explanation-3: -The organelles that are membrane sacs used to transport molecules are known as vesicles. Vesicles are comprised of a lipid (fat) bilayer that surround a molecule (such as a protein). This lipid bilayer functions to protect the molecule as the vesicle transports the molecule throughout the cell.
