@sarah786 I don't know that's why I posted the question

OpenStudy (anonymous):

The endomembrane system is composed of the different membranes that are suspended in the cytoplasm within a eukaryotic cell. These membranes divide the cell into functional and structural compartments, or organelles. In eukaryotes the organelles of the endomembrane system include: the nuclear envelope, the endoplasmic reticulum, the Golgi apparatus, lysosomes, vacuoles, vesicles, endosomes and the cell membrane.

well its responsible variety of important cellular processes that include protein synthesis and transport, lipid transport, metabolism, and poison detoxification.
