The Golgi apparatus acts as a sort of post office or shipping and receiving depatment for the cell. When proteins arrive from within the cell to the golgi body, they're packaged up before being sent off.

Which organelle packages and ships substance out of the cell?

The Golgi apparatus is responsible for packaging and modifying proteins and other molecules for transport out of the cell. It receives these substances from the endoplasmic reticulum and processes them before sending them to their final destination inside or outside the cell.


Flattened sacks of membranes apparently involved in the packaging and export of molecules synthesized in the cell are known as?

These flattened sacks of membranes are known as the Golgi apparatus. The Golgi apparatus processes, packages, and ships proteins and lipids produced by the cell to their final destinations within or outside of the cell.


Is Golgi apparatus the digestive center?

No, the Golgi apparatus is not the digestive center. It is an organelle within cells responsible for packaging and sorting proteins before they are transported to their destination. The digestive center in cells is typically the lysosome, which contains enzymes that break down waste and cellular debris.


What everyday object can you compare Golgi complex to?

Oh, dude, the Golgi complex is like the post office of the cell. It packages and ships proteins to different parts of the cell, just like how the post office sorts and delivers mail. So yeah, if you ever need to send a protein package in your cell, just drop it off at the Golgi post office!

What organelle receives vesicles and modifies the contents then ships them to where they are needed?

The organelle that receives vesicles, modifies their contents, and ships them to their destinations is the Golgi apparatus. It consists of a series of flattened membrane-bound sacs where proteins and lipids are processed, sorted, and packaged. After modification, the Golgi apparatus dispatches these molecules in vesicles to various locations within the cell or to the extracellular environment. This organelle plays a crucial role in the secretory pathway and overall cellular function.
