Question

The function of Golgi apparatus include all except

• A. GA is sorting centre of the cell
• B. GA is involved in post translational modification
• C. GA is involved in secretory protein synthesis
• D. GA is involved in cell plate formation

Answer 1

The correct option is C GA is involved in secretory protein synthesis

The newly synthesized proteins, found in the channels of the rough endoplasmic reticulum are moved to the golgi body where the carbohydrates are added to them and these molecules are enveloped in a part of the Golgi membrane and then the enveloped molecules leave the cell. The Golgi apparatus hence acts as the assembly factory of the cell where the raw materials are directed to the golgi apparatus before being passed out from the cell.

So, the correct answer is 'GA is involved in secretory protein synthesis'.
