Q. Assertion : The endomembrane system includes endoplasmic reticulum (ER), Golgi complex, lysosomes and vacuoles
Reason : Mitochondria, chloroplast and peroxisomes are not the part of endomembrane system because their functions are not coordinated with the same

Solution:

Endomembrane system is a grouping of some membrane organelles which function in close coordination with one another, viz., endoplasmic reticulum, Golgi complex, lysosomes and vacuoles. Functions of other organelles are not coordinated. They are not part of endomembrane system, e.g., chloroplasts, mitochondria, peroxisomes and glyoxysomes etc
