Verified step by step guidance

Understand the roles of microtubules and microfilaments: Microtubules are part of the cytoskeleton and help with cell shape, transport, and division. Microfilaments, also part of the cytoskeleton, are involved in muscle contraction, cell movement, and cell division.

Identify the functions of the Golgi apparatus: The Golgi apparatus is responsible for modifying, sorting, and packaging proteins and lipids for secretion or delivery to other organelles.

Consider how microtubules and microfilaments interact with the Golgi apparatus: Microtubules provide tracks for the movement of vesicles and organelles, including those from the Golgi apparatus, throughout the cell. Microfilaments can also assist in the transport of materials to and from the Golgi apparatus.

Evaluate the other options: Lysosomes are involved in digestion and waste processing, ribosomes are responsible for protein synthesis, and RNA is involved in coding, decoding, regulation, and expression of genes. These do not directly interact with microtubules and microfilaments in the same way as the Golgi apparatus.

Conclude that the Golgi apparatus is the correct answer because it works closely with microtubules and microfilaments to facilitate intracellular transport and communication.
