Solution

The correct option is D Golgi apparatus
The Golgi apparatus is responsible for the packaging, modification and transport of proteins. Proteins formed in the rough endoplasmic reticulum are packaged into vesicles and are transported to the golgi apparatus. Once the proteins reach the golgi, they are modified and transported to their respective locations through vesicles.
