Question

question 17 (1 point) which of the following is responsible for transporting substances around the cell? vesicle lysosome vacuole active transport none of the above

Explanation:

To determine which organelle transports substances within the cell, we analyze each option:

• Vesicle: Small membrane - bound sacs that move materials (e.g., proteins, lipids) between cell organelles or to/from the cell membrane.
• Lysosome: Contains digestive enzymes for breaking down waste, not for transport.
• Vacuole: Stores substances (e.g., water, nutrients) but not primarily for internal transport.
• “Active transport” is a process (not an organelle), and “none of the above” is incorrect as vesicles do transport.

Answer:

A. vesicle
