Solution

The correct option is A lt helps in recycling of the plasma membrane, pinched off by pinocytosis and phagocytosis.
Golgi apparatus is the endomembrane system. It helps in plasma membrane biogenesis. When the endoplasmic reticulum produces protein and lipids and then transport to the Golgi apparatus for its modification. In Golgi apparatus glycosidation and glycosylation of lipid and protein takes place. After modification lipid and protein transports to the plasma membrane and its recycling occurs by pinocytosis and phagocytosis. Its main function is transportation and secretion through vesicles. Whereas it helps in plant cytokinesis and not animal cytokinesis.
So, the correct answer is 'lt helps in recycling of the plasma membrane, pinched off by pinocytosis and phagocytosis'.
