I'm not exactly sure, but it would seem to me that the mitochondria would add carbohydrates to proteins. The Golgi apparatus only packages and secretes waste.

Why are most proteins destined for secretion from the cell glycoproteins?

Proteins destined for secretion are modified in the endoplasmic reticulum and Golgi apparatus to become glycoproteins. These carbohydrate modifications help with protein folding, stability, and recognition by other cells. Glycoproteins also play a role in cell-cell communication and immune response.


What is the purpose of rough endoplasmic reticulum?

The rough endoplasmic reticulum is for making secretory proteins like enzymes and antibodies. The smooth endoplasmic reticulum produces steroids in certain cells and conducts impulse in muscle cells.


Is a polypeptide chain a carbohydrate?

No, a polypeptide chain is not a carbohydrate. A polypeptide chain is made up of amino acids and is a primary component of proteins, while carbohydrates are composed of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen and serve as a major source of energy for the body.


What process takes place in the rough endoplasmic recticulum?

Ribosomes are found on an endoplasmic reticulum and those ribosomes create proteins that are inserted in the rough endoplasmic reticulum (ER) , where they may be chemically modified


Which cellular structure has single membrane?

Most of them. Lysosomes, endoplasmic reticulum, golgi apparatus, peroxisome, vacuoles all have single membranes. Nucleus has double membrane to make it less permeable, chloroplasts have membrane bound structures (thylakoid) inside its two membranes, and mitochondria have larger membrane that is folded within the outer membrane for added surface area.

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).

Where proteins are processed and packaged?

Proteins are produced in all cells by protein synthesis. It requires the mRNA molecule produced from DNA in nucleus. Once it is transported to cytoplasm, ribosomes and tRNA molecules and enzymes will carry out protein synthesis.


What is the relationship between the Golgi apparatus and plasma membrane?

Many proteins need additional sugars added to them. This is called glycosylation and is essential for many proteins and occurs in the Golgi, so if these proteins didn't pass through it there would be trouble. More importantly however is that many proteins need to be secreted, and they have to be secreted through the Golgi.


Why do you called it Golgi complex?

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopediaThe Golgi complex, also known as the Golgi apparatus or simply the Golgi, is a cytoplasmic organelle. It is found in eukaryote cells, such as those of animals, plant, and fungi. It was discovered by Camillo Golgi in 1898. Golgi was ignored and his discovery was said to be dirt on his lenses. Years later, electron microscope pictures showed structures just like in the original Golgi drawings. It is made of several flattened sac-like membranes which some people say look like a stack of pancakes. The main function of the Golgi apparatus is to process and package macromolecules, such as proteins and lipids. They come to the Golgi after being built, and before they go to their destination. The Golgi complex inspects them for flaws and discards extra material added during their manufacture, wraps them up and then targets them for packaging. The Golgi complex is especially active in processing proteins for secretion. The Golgi releases special enzymes called lysosomes, which clean off any extra amino acids. When the package is ready, it is pinched off the Golgi and released into the cytoplasm. The Golgi complex is part of the cellular membrane system along with the endoplasmic reticulum. The Golgi apparatus is known as the powerhouse of the cell.


How do you make a 3D model Golgi apparatu?

To make a 3D model of the Golgi apparatus, you can use software like Blender or Autodesk Maya to create a detailed representation of the organelle. Start by researching the structure of the Golgi apparatus to understand its components and organization, then use the software tools to build a 3D model based on this information. Textures and colors can be added to enhance the realism of the model.

Do we need a daily intake of sugar?

No, we do not need a daily intake of added sugars. The body can obtain the necessary energy from other nutrients like carbohydrates, fats, and proteins. It is advisable to limit added sugars in the diet to maintain overall health.


What section of the eatwell plate are wraps?

Wraps fall under the carbohydrates section of the eatwell plate due to their primary ingredient being a flour tortilla, which is a source of carbohydrates. However, the filling added to the wrap can also contribute to other sections of the plate, such as proteins or vegetables, depending on its content.
