Vesicles are a major organelle in the cell. They are really just a group of individual organelles as a whole. These smaller groups of vesicles are a lot harder to tell apart from one another. The vesicles control and also do a lot of the jobs that need to be done in a cell. They have many different jobs depending on what type of vesicle they are. Vesicles are very, very small and were discovered many years later than all of the other organelles in the cell. The vesicles are a very important and also interesting organelle to learn about. In the same ways as it was interesting it is very complex because there are so many different groups and different jobs that they do. Vesicles were ignored greatly for many years. Scientists had no idea what the importance of the vesicles was so they were just ignored. There is no definite time or person who documented the discovery of vesicles. The discovery of the importance to vesicles is credited to H. Clarke Anderson and Ermanno Bonucci in 1967. Other than that there is not much to state who discovered vesicles and when or where this event occurred. …show more content…

They are made up of a lot of different molecules. There are many subgroups of vesicles whom are all a little different from each other. The subgroups are very difficult to tell apart from each other. Vesicles are found all over the cell instead of just one general area. Vesicles are separated from the cytosol by at least one layer of phospholipid bilayer; if there is only one bilayer then they are unilamella vesicles, if there are two bilayers they are mutilamellar vesicles. Vesicles in general are a bubble made of liquid that is filled with liquid, than can also be formed naturally or they can be
