Question

What happens when Golgi apparatus is removed from the cell?

• A. Modification, sorting and packaging of the materials coming from endoplasmic reticulum or synthesized in the golgi complex itself, will not take place.
• B. Modification, sorting and packaging of the materials coming from endoplasmic reticulum or synthesized in the golgi complex itself, takes place as usual.
• C. Modification, sorting and packaging of the materials coming from cytoplasm or synthesized in the golgi complex itself, will not take place.
• D. All of the above

Answer 1

The correct option is A Modification, sorting and packaging of the materials coming from endoplasmic reticulum or synthesized in the golgi complex itself, will not take place.

Golgi apparatus has the main function of modifying, sorting and packaging the proteins, which are synthesized by cells. Golgi bodies are also involved in the transport of lipid molecules across the cell. The cellular secretions are also packed in vesicles formed by lysosomes and are transported out of the cell. Golgi apparatus forms the part of the cellular endomembrane system, i.e., it processes the proteins coming from the endoplasmic reticulum.

Hence, option A is correct.
