GENERAL HISTOLOGY

Detailed explanation-1: -The Golgi apparatus, or Golgi complex, functions as a factory in which proteins received from the ER are further processed and sorted for transport to their eventual destinations: lysosomes, the plasma membrane, or secretion. In addition, as noted earlier, glycolipids and sphingomyelin are synthesized within the Golgi.

Detailed explanation-2: -Golgi apparatus is the site for the synthesis of various glycolipids and sphingomyelin. The main function of the Golgi apparatus is in the formation of proteoglycans. Golgi apparatus is also referred to as the Golgi body.

Detailed explanation-3: -Definition. A Golgi body, also known as a Golgi apparatus, is a cell organelle that helps process and package proteins and lipid molecules, especially proteins destined to be exported from the cell.
