• B. Smooth endoplasmic reticulum is involved in protein synthesis
• C. Lysosomes are important in membrane biogenesis
• D. Golgi bodies are involved in packaging and dispatching of materials

Answer 1

Answer: (D)

Golgi bodies are involved in packaging and dispatching of materials

• The golgi body is the membrane bound series of flattened sac like structures.
• There are different functions which are performed by golgi such as modification, sorting and packaging of the proteins which are synthesized by cells.
• The cellular secretions such as proteins, lipids, hormones, etc. are also packed in vesicles and are transported out of the cell.
• Thus, the correct answer is option D.
