Well...

The primary function of the Golgi apparatus is to process and package macromolecules, such as proteins and lipids, after their synthesis and before they make their way to their destination; it is particularly important in the processing of proteins for secretion. The Golgi apparatus forms a part of the cellular endomembrane system.

And of course

Endoplasmic reticulum is a network of tubules, vesicles and sacs that are interconnected. They may serve specialized functions in the cell including protein synthesis, sequestration of calcium, production of steroids, storage and production of glycogen, and insertion of membrane proteins. The first part of this presentation will focus on rough endoplasmic reticulum which gets its name from the presence of ribosomes on its surface.

The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is repsonible for the production of the protein and lipid components of most of the cell's organelles. The ER contains a great amount of folds - but the membrane forms a single sheet enclosing a single closed sac. This internal space is called the ER lumen. The ER is additionally responsible for moving proteins and other carbohydrates.

What three organelles help make and transport proteins?

The four organelles in eukaryotes are: - Nucleus: contains the DNA which is synthezised - Ribosomes:synthesizes the proteins - Rough endoplasmic reticulum: transports the proteins - Golgi apparatus/complex/body: where the proteins are chemically modified and then sent out to different parts of the cell.


What organelle stores and packages chemicals?

The Golgi apparatus stores and packages chemicals in cells. It receives proteins and lipids from the endoplasmic reticulum, modifies them, and packages them into vesicles for transport to other parts of the cell or for secretion.


What is a transport company of a plant cell?

The transport company of a plant cell is the endoplasmic reticulum. It is responsible for transporting proteins and lipids within the cell, as well as for synthesizing and modifying these molecules. The endoplasmic reticulum plays a key role in maintaining the structure and function of the cell.


What organelle packages proteins and makes lipids?

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.


How are ribosomes the endoplasmic reticulum and Golgi body related?

ribosomes recieve mRNA and are responsible for proteinsynthesis, located on the edndoplasmic reticulum which transports these proteins in vesicles. The golgi apparatus recieves this and modifies it to then be secreted out the cell via exocytosis. Hope this helps!

What does the Golgi body do for an animal cell?

The golgi body stores, packages and distributes the proteins and lipids made in the endoplasmic reticulum. Proteins, which are meant to return to the endoplasmic reticulum, carry a distinctive 'tag'. The golgi apparatus recognizes the tag and transports the proteins back to the endoplasmic reticulum.


What is the job of the endoplasmic?

it's a network of passageways that carries materials from one part of of the cell to another. The endoplasmic reticulum sends it to the Golgi body so the Golgi body can distribute it. The endoplasmic reticulum is located next to the nucleus. They have ribosomes on it.


What powers the Golgi body?

The endoplasmic reticulum powers the Golgi body by providing proteins to interact with enzymes contained within the Golgi complex.


What organelle that transports molecules in and out of the cell?

The Endoplasmic Reticulum acts as a transport mechanism in cells, to "import" and "export" things such as proteins from the cell to other parts of the body.


Which part of the cell receives substances from the endoplasmic reticulum and prepares them from transport out of the cell?

golgi apparatus


What is covered by ribosomes and sends it modified protein to the Golgi aperatus?

The ribosome covered organelle that modifies and sends out proteins is the rough endoplasmic reticulum. The ribosome is a cellular structure on which proteins are made. The rough endoplasmic reticulum synthesizes and packages proteins.

Is the Golgi body usually covered in ribosomes?

No, the Golgi body is not usually covered in ribosomes. Ribosomes are found in the cytoplasm and on the rough endoplasmic reticulum, where they are involved in protein synthesis. The Golgi body functions in modifying, sorting, and packaging proteins for transport within the cell or secretion outside the cell.


Where does the endoplasmic reticulum send the materials to?

Once proteins leave the Rough Endoplasmic Reticulum (RER) they are sent to the Golgi Apparatus for modification, sorting, and packaging. The proteins then bud off the Golgi Apparatus enclosed in vesicles, which can are then transported outside or within the cell. Additionally, lipids and steroids that are synthesized by Smooth Endoplasmic Reticulum (SER)are also sent to the Golgi Apparatus for similar processing prior to being transported outside and around the cell.


What are organelles in a animal?

Cell membrane, Golgi body, endoplasmic reticulum, nucleus, vacoule, lysosomes, ribosomes

What organelle makes membrane proteins and proteins for export out of the cell?

Rough endoplasmic reticulum exports protein to the Golgi body in vesicles, the Golgi body then modifies these proteins and then transports them, again in vesicles
