Question

question 17 (1 point)
which of the following is responsible for transporting substances around the cell?

○ vesicle
○ lysosome
○ vacuole
○ ribosome

Explanation:

To solve this, we analyze each option:

• Vesicle: Small membrane - bound sacs that transport materials within the cell.
• Lysosome: Contains digestive enzymes for breaking down waste, not for transport.
• Vacuole: Mainly for storage (e.g., in plant cells for water and nutrients), not transport.
• Ribosome: Involved in protein synthesis, not transport.

So the vesicle is responsible for transporting substances around the cell.

Answer:

A. vesicle
