Explanation :
A vesicle is a small membrane enclosed sac that can transport molecules within or between cells. The other organelles listed have more specific functions. Lysosomes contain enzymes for intracellular digestion, peroxisomes are involved in lipid metabolism and detoxification, and vacuoles are often involved in storage and maintaining turgor pressure in plant cells.
