Golgi body:

  1. An organelle is the piece of the cell having a specific capability inside a cell.
  2. The packaging and processing of proteins and lipids are one of the important functions of a cell.
  3. The whole structure of our body is made up of basic unit cells.
  4. All functions which our body performs are the result of the coordinated functioning of cells.
  5. The cell itself is able to perform all these functions due to various processes going inside a cell.
  6. And that includes transcription and translation.
  7. Proteins are synthesized inside ribosomes and polypeptides are made, then post-translational modifications happen to activate the proteins and send them to their active or working sites.
  8. Packaging and processing is a very crucial function as it ensures the transport of proteins and lipids to their functional sites.
