Because that is what the Golgi body does. It modifies proteins, packages them in vesicles and ships them to intracellular and intercellular locations.
packing and sorting
Golgi Body is the packing centre for the cell. It also helps in the formation of lysosomes.
The golgi body (or golgi appartus, depending on what textbook) found in eukaryotic cells is like "the post office." It's main function is to "package" and put chemical tags on things--proteins--so they can be sent to wherever it is that they are needed.
Golgi apparatus
The Golgi Bodies.
The Golgi Body (also known as the Golgi Apparatus).
Yes, they are also known as Golgi complexes.
The Golgi body, or Golgi complex, or Golgi apparatus packages proteins and synthesized materials of the cell. It moves it toward the cell surface to fuse with the cell membrane.
The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is responsible for the production of lipids and proteins. Rough ER is involved in protein synthesis, while smooth ER synthesizes lipids and detoxifies cells. Once the molecules are produced, they are then packaged and modified by the Golgi apparatus before being transported to their final destination.
The primary function of the Golgi apparatus is to process, package, and deliver proteins and lipids to their correct destinations within the cell or to be secreted outside of the cell. It modifies and sorts these molecules before directing them to their appropriate locations.
No, the Golgi body is not a cell. It is an organelle found within eukaryotic cells, responsible for modifying, sorting, and packaging proteins and lipids for transportation within the cell or secretion outside of the cell.
the Golgi Body is responsible for packaging substances for the cell.
