Question

which organelle is responsible for transporting lipids in the cell? (1 point)
○ rough er
○ nucleus
○ golgi apparatus
○ mitochondrion

Explanation:

To determine the organelle responsible for transporting lipids, we analyze each option:

• Rough ER: Involved in protein synthesis (has ribosomes), not lipid transport.
• Nucleus: Contains genetic material, not lipid transport.
• Golgi apparatus: Modifies, sorts, and packages lipids (and proteins) for transport within the cell or secretion.
• Mitochondrion: Produces ATP (energy), not lipid transport.

Answer:

C. Golgi apparatus
