The endomembrane system is a group of membranes and organelles in eukaryotic cells that work together to modify, package, and transport lipids and proteins. These organelles are functionally coordinated.
The components of the endomembrane system include the Endoplasmic Reticulum (ER), Golgi complex, Lysosomes, and Vacuoles.
Organelles like Mitochondria, Chloroplasts, and Peroxisomes are not considered part of the endomembrane system because their functions are not coordinated with the ER-Golgi-Lysosome-Vacuole pathway.
Comparing the options, option (B) correctly lists the four components that constitute the endomembrane system.
Final Answer: endoplasmic reticulum, Golgi complex, lysosomes and vacuole
