Answer 1

Hello.  I am happy to help you.  The correct answer from the choices listed above is option C.  If a cell is compared to a plant, the organelle that helps transport fertilizer from the soil to the leaf would be the vacuole.  Vacuoles are storage bubbles found in cells.  They are found in both animal and plant cells but are much larger in plant cells.
