What is the difference in vesicles and vacuoles?

Answer 1

Yes. A Golgi body is a small part of each Golgi complex. To sum it up, there are many Golgi bodies in a Golgi complex.

Answer 2

The Golgi apparatus (also known as the dictyosome or Golgi body) is an organelle in a cell. The Golgi apparatus, and Golgi body are the same thing.
Yes. The Golgi apparatus is also called the Golgi body, Golgi complex, or dictyosome.

Answer 3

No they are not.

• Vacuoles are inside plants and they are the storage for sugars and nutrients for the plant. It is also called the central vacuole because of its size and location.
• Vesicles are sac like things which transport molecules in and out of the cell.

Answer 4

In a cell, vacuoles are larger sacs that store water for the cell. Vesicles, on the other hand, are quite smaller bubbles of liquids and can store and transport substances within the cell.

Answer 5

Vesicles typically function through transportation of compounds within and between cells. Often, the substances within a vesicle will be cellular products or byproducts of a cells functioning. Typically vesicles function in much the same way in all cells.

Vacuoles serve a variety of functions depending on the cell in which they are found. In most animal cells where vacuoles occur, they function in the temporary storage of food substances. A good example would be a lymphocyte in human blood. These cells specialize in killing an digesting bacteria and have to engulf the bacteria in order to break them down. They do this by creating a vacuole, through phagocytosis, in which the bacterium is held until it is digested.

Some freshwater protists have contractile vacuoles, a specialized form of vacuole that they use to manage water balance within the cell by pumping out excess water. Plant cells have very large vacuoles which function in storing nutrients and water within the cell. They can also serve a structural function by helping the plant cell to retain its shape through turgidity.

Answer 6

The Vesicles store cells and have a double membrane while the golgi apparatus recieves products from the E.R. which modifies and packages materials. They both relate by having a certain job to do with a cell.

Answer 7

No, they are two separate organelles. The endoplasmic reticulum is of a smooth and a rough part with lipids being synthesized in the smooth part and proteins being synthesized and modified in the rough part.

The Golgi further modifies proteins and packs them into vesicles for shipment throughout the cell and to other cells in the body.

Answer 8

Yes they are the same but apparatus is just a more scientific name for body.

Answer 9

vesicle is a transport unit, like in the brain, your nuerotransmitters are stored in vesicles.

a vacuole is the water pool that exists in all plant cells

Answer 10

yes they are fro all those people who didn't know that its just another name for a vacuole, they have the same jog because they are the same thing!
