Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Which organelle acts like a series of roads, transporting nutrients throughout the cell?
A
Golgi body
B
endoplasmic reticulum
C
vacuole
D
cell membrane
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The ER has two major functions: Transport: Molecules, such as proteins, can move from place to place inside the ER, much like on an intracellular highway.

Detailed explanation-2: -The endoplasmic reticulum is like a road way in the cell. The endoplasmic reticulum is like a freeway, because it gets people from place to place.

Detailed explanation-3: -Endoplasmic reticulum (ER) This organelle helps process molecules created by the cell. The endoplasmic reticulum also transports these molecules to their specific destinations either inside or outside the cell.

Detailed explanation-4: -From the endoplasmic reticulum, proteins are transported in vesicles to the Golgi apparatus, where they are further processed and sorted for transport to lysosomes, the plasma membrane, or secretion from the cell.

Detailed explanation-5: -The organelle that transports proteins is called the endoplasmic reticulum, or ER. The ER is an organelle made up of sac-like membranes that are folded many times. Proteins are synthesized by ribosomes that are attached to the ER.
