The Golgi apparatus, or Golgi body, collects cell products in one place and the the vesicles move the product where it needs to be, whether in another part of a cell, or outside of the cell. The Golgi apparatus functions in modifying, packaging, storing, and distributing proteins produced by the ER. After the proteins are received at its inner face, they are often modified by the addition of a carbohydrate chain or a phosphate group. They are packaged into secretory vesicles that move to the plasma membrane, where their contents are discharged. For example, this is the way hormones are secreted into blood by the glands taht produce them.

What is incoming transport vesicle of Golgi apparatus?

Incoming transport vesicles of the Golgi apparatus are vesicles that bud off from the endoplasmic reticulum and bring proteins and lipids to the Golgi apparatus for further processing and sorting. These vesicles fuse with the cis-Golgi network, allowing their contents to enter the Golgi stack for processing.


Can a substance packaged by the Golgi Apparatus leave the cell within a vesicle?

Substances packaged by the Golgi Apparatus can leave the cell within a vesicle. Vesicles of membrane lipids and proteins bud off from the trans-Golgi sacs of the Golgi Apparatus and are directed to their destination.Trans-Golgi sacs are sacs that are farthest away from the endoplasmic reticulum.

What organelles or structures are associated with secretion?

Organelles associated with secretion are the endoplasmic reticulum, Golgi apparatus, secretory vesicles, and lysosomes. These organelles work together in the secretory pathway to package, modify, and transport proteins and other molecules out of the cell.


How does a Golgi apparatus relate to a school?

It does not. Golgi apparatus is an organelle in eukaryotic cells. A school is a man-made organisation!

Where are cells products modified and packaged in vesicle for transport?

the products are energy, carbon dioxide, and water.


Can bud off vesicles which form the golgi apparatus?

No, the Golgi apparatus does not form from vesicles budded off from other parts of the cell. The Golgi apparatus is made up of a series of flattened membrane-bound sacs called cisternae that are formed by the fusion of vesicles coming from the endoplasmic reticulum.


What do the nucleus ER ribosomes Golgi apparatus and vesicle work together to do?

They all work together to transport cellular materials.


Does the Golgi apparatus interact with the mitochondria?

Yes, the Golgi apparatus and mitochondria can interact through vesicle trafficking. The Golgi apparatus packages and modifies proteins into vesicles that can be transported to the mitochondria for functions such as energy production.


What cell organelle packages substances for the cell?

That is the golgi body. They pack the proteins in vesicles
