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.

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.
