Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
A series of folded membranes from the nucleus to the cell membrane that produce, package and transport proteins through the cell; may or may not have ribosomes on its surface.
A
Golgi bodies
B
endoplasmic reticulum
C
lysosomes
D
vacuoles
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -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 .

Detailed explanation-2: -The Golgi apparatus, or Golgi complex, functions as a factory in which proteins received from the ER are further processed and sorted for transport to their eventual destinations: lysosomes, the plasma membrane, or secretion.

Detailed explanation-3: -Endoplasmic reticulum is a network of membranes inside a cell through which proteins and other molecules move. Proteins are assembled at organelles called ribosomes.

Detailed explanation-4: -The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is the principal protein-folding organelle for secretory and membrane proteins. Proteins are folded, assembled, and post-translationally modified in the ER. Chaperones and folding enzymes assist in this process.

Detailed explanation-5: -The endomembrane system (endo-= “within”) is a group of membranes and organelles in eukaryotic cells that works together to modify, package, and transport lipids and proteins.
