Many proteins need additional sugars added to them. This is called glycosylation and is essential for many proteins and occurs in the Golgi, so if these proteins didn't pass through it there would be trouble. More importantly however is that many proteins need to be secreted, and they have to be secreted through the Golgi.

Golgi Apparatus


Which organelle is responsible for renewing and modifying the plasma membrane?

The organelle responsible for renewing and modifying the plasma membrane is the Golgi apparatus. It processes, sorts, and packages lipids and proteins for transport to the plasma membrane, where they can be incorporated into its structure. Additionally, the Golgi apparatus plays a crucial role in glycosylation and other modifications that affect membrane composition and function.

Which of these are major components of a cell plasma membrane ribosomes Golgi Apparatus and ER?

Ribosomes are not major components of the cell plasma membrane. However, the Golgi Apparatus and Endoplasmic Reticulum (ER) are major components of the cell plasma membrane. The Golgi Apparatus is involved in modifying, sorting, and packaging proteins for secretion, while the ER is responsible for protein synthesis and lipid metabolism.

Do prokaryotes haves Golgi apparatus?

No, prokaryotes do not have a Golgi apparatus.A Golgi apparatus consists of a stack of membranes in the form of flattened sacs. In prokaryotes, the only membrane is the one around the outside of the cytoplasm, the plasma membrane.
