Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
small organelle that contains and transports materials within the cytoplasm
A
Vesicle
B
Cytoplasm
C
Ribosome
D
Nucleolus
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Both vesicles and vacuoles are sac-like organelles that store and transport materials in the cell. Vesicles are much smaller than vacuoles and have a variety of functions. The vesicles that pinch off from the membranes of the ER and Golgi apparatus store and transport protein and lipid molecules.

Detailed explanation-2: -Vesicles. Structure: Small organelle within a cell, consisting of fluid enclosed by a lipid bilayer membrane. Function: Vesicles store, transport, or digest cellular products and waste. Vesicles can fuse with the cell/plasma membrane to release their contents outside of the cell.

Detailed explanation-3: -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. It is also involved in the transport of lipids around the cell. Pieces of the Golgi membrane pinch off to form vesicles that transport molecules around the cell.

Detailed explanation-4: -The Golgi apparatus is the central organelle mediating protein and lipid transport within the eukaryotic cell.

Detailed explanation-5: -Lysosomes. Lysosomes are vesicles that contain digestive enzymes. They are only present in animal cells. They function as part of the cell’s recycling system and can also help initiate cell death.
