Golgi bodies, named after the Italian biologist Camillo Golgi, are composed of a stack of about half a dozen sacuoles, whose purpose in the cell are to prepare and store chemical products produced in the cell, and then to secrete these outside the cell. Golgi bodies are formed when small sac like pieces of membrane are pinched away from the cell. In the endoplasmic reticulum, proteins synthesized by ribosomes are sent through the canals of the ER, where they meet up with the Golgi bodies. The proteins are then packaged in vesicles. The membranes of these vesicles are then able to bond with the cell membrane, where their contents are secreted outside the cell. Protiens are not the only material packaged in the Golgi bodies. A portion of materials in the wall of a plant cell are assembled in the Golgi bodies.
The number and size of Golgi bodies found in a cell depends on the quantity of chemicals produced in the cell. The more chemicals, the more and larger bodies. For example, a large number of Golgi bodies are found in cells that produce saliva and other materials for digestion.

What part of the body is like the Golgi Body?
The Golgi Apparatus also referred to as the Golgi Body processes the lipids and proteins. The Golgi Body can therefore be compared to the digestive system.
What is Another name for the Golgi Complex?
The Golgi complex is also known as Golgi apparatus, Golgi body or Golgi. It is found in most eukaryotic cells. The Golgi complex was identified by the Italian physician Camillo Golgi in 1897.
What part of the cell packages secretions?
golgi body
Organelles that package and transport materials out of the cell?
Golgi Body packages proteins and controls the destination of these packets
Lysosome and peroxisome packaging department?
Golgi Apparatus or Golgi Body

Can a Golgi body produce another Golgi body?
yes
Does cytoplasm have a Golgi body?
Is a golgi body cytoplasm matter
Is the Golgi body a cell?
No, that's the mitochondria.

What building is like a Golgi body?
The building like a Golgi body is a post office
Lysosome and peroxisome packaging department?
Golgi Apparatus or Golgi Body
What modifies and packages proteins before they are sent out of the cell?
Golgi, or you can say Golgi body or the Golgi apparatus
What powers the Golgi body?
The endoplasmic reticulum powers the Golgi body by providing proteins to interact with enzymes contained within the Golgi complex.
