Answer:

Endoplasmic reticulum is the defective organelle in most CF.

Explanation:

This is because of  mutation(deletion) in the proteins of these organelle. The CFTR  protein -a transmembrane regulator get stucked inside the E.R, thus  the  CFTR chloride protein channel is blocked. Therefore the outflow of Cl and water  out of the cell  is obstructed.

Consequently, the mucus from blocked fluid flow, clogs the lungs, the fallopian tube, sweat duct, and other places.
