Vesicle
By. Brittany List
1. Vesicles are small secured sac structures within cells.They have a lipid bi layer that separate the solids or liquids they carry within the cell. So there is the outer body, the lipid bi layer, and the internal product they carry. Vesicles are different in their shape and size.
2. Vesicles help to transport one material to another area. This is also called intracellular transport. Vesicles are vital as they serve a wide purpose, but mostly transport. They transport material within a cell and also between cells.
3. There are different types of vesicles. They each can have different roles. Vesicles are in humans, animals,and plants.
