Which of the following are single membranous organelles?

Correct answer: C. Golgi bodies, Lysosome and ER

  • A. Mitochondria and ribosomes
  • B. Cytosol, mitochondria and ribosomes
  • C. Golgi bodies, Lysosome and ER
  • D. Golgi bodies, lysosome and mitochondria

Explanation

The Golgi bodies, lysosomes, and endoplasmic reticulum are all examples of single membranous organelles. The Golgi bodies are involved in processing and modifying proteins, lipids, and carbohydrates.
