Membranous organelles are enclosed within a lipid bilayer, separating their internal environment from the cytosol. Examples of membranous organelles include the [[Nucleus (cell)|nucleus]], [[Mitochondria|mitochondria]], [[Endoplasmic Reticulum|endoplasmic reticulum]], [[Golgi Apparatus|Golgi apparatus]], and [[Lysosome|lysosomes]]. | Membranous organelles are enclosed within a lipid bilayer, separating their internal environment from the cytosol.
