The Golgi apparatus helps transport lipids by receiving them from the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and modifying them into different types of lipids. Lipids are packaged into vesicles in the Golgi and can be sent to different parts of the cell or outside the cell via exocytosis.

Which organelle is responsible for modifying proteins and lipids after they are manufactured?

The Golgi apparatus is responsible for modifying proteins and lipids after they are manufactured. It receives proteins and lipids from the endoplasmic reticulum, modifies them by adding sugars and lipids, and then packages them into vesicles for transportation to their final destination within or outside the cell.


What are the Golgi bodies main job?

The Golgi modify and package proteins and lipids that were imported from the ER.


How does the Golgi transport lipids?

The Golgi transports lipids by receiving them from the endoplasmic reticulum in vesicles, modifying them as needed, and then packaging them into new vesicles for transport to their final destination within the cell or outside of the cell. The Golgi apparatus also plays a role in sorting and directing the lipids to different cellular compartments.


The ER sends proteins and lipids it makes to what to be modified?

The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) sends proteins and lipids in membranous vesicles to the Golgi body (also known as the Golgi apparatus or the Golgi complex). The Golgi body looks like a stack of pita breads; it resembles the ER. There, the membranous vesicles containing proteins or lipids will fuse with one side of the Golgi body known as the cis face.Inside the Golgi body, proteins and lipids will have carbohydrate molecules added to them, forming glycoproteins (proteins with carbohydrates attached) and glycolipids (lipids with carbohydrates attached). After being modified, the glycoproteins and glycolipids will exit the Golgi body in membranous vesicles through the trans face (the side opposite the cisface).


Are lipids responsible for Golgi functions?

The Golgi has a lipid bilayer and it does sort and ship both proteins and lipds made by the cell.

What does the Golgi Apparatus in a plants cell?

"The Golgi apparatus handles the transportation in the cell. It will process proteins and lipids and then those can be secreted out of the cell."


Where are lipids produced?

Lipids are mainly produced in the liver and adipose tissue. The liver synthesizes lipids for energy storage and transport, while adipose tissue stores excess lipids as triglycerides. Additionally, other organs like the intestines and mammary glands can also produce specific types of lipids for various functions.
