Answer:

The bright color of butterflies is a discouraging factor for its prey

Explanation:

Butterflies and caterpillars are easily visible to its prey but still they do not eat any of them. This can be because of two factors –

a) The bright color of these organisms might be a factor that makes them uninteresting (intending to be  tasteless etc.) for their prey

b) The bright color might be a signal to the bird indicating in advance of any harm associated with the butterflies/caterpillar feeding.

Hence , instead the Monarch butterflies have brightly colored orange wings with black patterns on them, making them easily visible to birds, the  birds rarely eat the monarchs

Explanation:

The endomembrane system is an extensive sets of intracellular membrane. These system was first discovered in the late 1800s when scientist Camillo Golgi noticed that a certain stain selectively marked only some internal cellular membranes. Golgi actually thought that these intracellular membranes were interconnected, but advances in microscopy and biochemical studies of the various membrane-encased organelles later made it clear the organelles in the endomembrane system are separate compartments with specific functions.
