Solution

The correct option is D Golgi apparatus
The Golgi apparatus is found in most cells. It is another packaging organelle like the endoplasmic reticulum. It was named after Camillo Golgi, an Italian biologist. They are found in the cytoplasm of both, plant and animal cells. It is composed of stacks of membrane-bound structures known as cisternae. The Golgi apparatus gathers simple molecules and combines them to make molecules that are more complex. It then takes those big molecules, packages them in vesicles, and either store them for later use or sends them out of the cell.
Hence, the correct answer is option D.
