What is the structure and origin of the Golgi complex?
The Golgi Complex originates from the cell membrane and consists of a stack of flattened membranous sac called saccules. These saccules May bud off to...
What is the relationship of the Golgi to the Endoplasmic Reticulum?
The proteins that are made in the smooth E.R. and modified in the Smooth E.R., are packaged into vesicles and shipped to the Golgi complex.
What is the primary function of the Golgi Complex?
It's primary function is to modify, package and address protein filled vesicles for export out of the cell.
What is the secondary function of the Golgi Apparatus?
The Golgi manufactures hydrolitic enzymes and packages them into vesicles called LYSOSOMES.
