Using an electron microscope,you notice an organelle that consists of stacks of membranes and appears to be producing vesicles.This organelle is most likely
A) endoplasmic reticulum.
B) the nucleus.
C) a mitochondrion.
D) a Golgi apparatus.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The organelle described consisting of stacks of membranes that produce vesicles is most likely the Golgi apparatus. The Golgi is responsible for modifying, sorting, and packaging proteins and lipids into vesicles for transport to the appropriate cellular location. The other options, while important cellular structures, do not fit the description provided. The endoplasmic reticulum also consists of membrane stacks but is involved in protein synthesis and lipid metabolism. The nucleus contains genetic material and does not produce vesicles. The mitochondrion is involved in energy production and does not produce vesicles.
