Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Cholesterol and phospholipids are transported between organelles by both incompletely characterized vesicle populations (b) and direct contact between membranes and, to some extent, small soluble lipid-transfer proteins (c). Though Golgi-dependent mechanisms are involved in the transport of lipids and cholesterol, it is not the only mechanism involved. Therefore, option D is the best choice.
