Answer:

The correct answer is option 2. Golgi apparatus.

Step-by-step explanation:

The liver cells manufacture glycoproteins that are needed to be secreted out of the cell for this Golgi apparatus is the most prominent organelle among the options. Golgi apparatus have a function of collecting protein from endoplasmic articulate and modify and package them and send them for there destination.

Liver cells release such glycoproteins made Golgi apparatus more prominent organelle whereas the adipose cells are storage cells so they do not need it more prominent than liver cells.

Thus, the correct answer is option- 2. Golgi apparatus.

The correct answer is: 2. Golgi Apparatus.

The hepatocytes, cells of the liver, are abundance of cellular organelles associated with metabolic and secretory functions. So, Golgi apparatus which is responsible for secretory functions is likely to be more prominent in liver cells than in adipose cells.

Golgi apparatus pack proteins and participates in processing proteins for secretion.
