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: -The Golgi apparatus, also known as the Golgi body or Golgi complex, is an organelle that processes and packages proteins and lipid molecules (i.e., fat molecules) that are later exported to other cell compartments or secreted from the cell.
Detailed explanation-3: -Its main function is the packaging and secretion of proteins. It receives proteins from Endoplasmic Reticulum. It packages it into membrane-bound vesicles, which are then transported to various destinations, such as lysosomes, plasma membrane or secretion.
Detailed explanation-4: -The Golgi processes proteins made by the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) before sending them out to the cell. Proteins enter the Golgi on the side facing the ER (cis side), and exit on the opposite side of the stack, facing the plasma membrane of the cell (trans side).
Detailed explanation-5: -So, the correct answer is ‘GA is involved in secretory protein synthesis’.
