Which organelle, located near the nucleus, consists of flattened, membrane-bound sacs?

1. The Golgi apparatus is the organelle near the nucleus with flattened, membrane-bound sacs.
2. Lysosomes are membranous structures containing hydrolytic enzymes that aid in the breakdown of macromolecules within the cell.
3. In salivary gland chromosomes or polytene chromosomes, homologous chromosomes undergo somatic pairing and repeated replication of chromonemata.
4. Cell adhesion and recognition are facilitated by glycoproteins and glycolipids in the cell membrane, which are formed by small carbohydrates attached to lipids and extrinsic proteins.

Correct answer: The Golgi apparatus is the organelle near the nucleus with flattened, membrane-bound sacs.

Solution

The Golgi apparatus is made of flattened membrane-bound cisternae and is typically located near the nucleus. Its role in modifying, sorting, and packaging proteins matches this structure.
