GENERAL HISTOLOGY

Detailed explanation-1: -The Golgi apparatus is a membrane-bound organelle found in most cells. It is responsible for packaging proteins into vesicles prior to secretion and therefore plays a key role in the secretory pathway. Mucus, sweat, and proteins are examples of substances secreted by the Golgi apparatus.

Detailed explanation-2: -A stack of small flat sacs formed by membranes inside the cell’s cytoplasm (gel-like fluid). The Golgi apparatus prepares proteins and lipid (fat) molecules for use in other places inside and outside the cell. The Golgi apparatus is a cell organelle. Also called Golgi body and Golgi complex.

Detailed explanation-3: -The type of secretion that involves the Golgi apparatus is most appropriately referred to as exocrine secretion where materials elaborated within the cell are packaged into discrete transport packets or vesicles and discharged.

Detailed explanation-4: -The Golgi complex plays a central role in protein secretion by regulating cargo sorting and trafficking. As these processes are of functional importance to cell polarity, motility, growth, and division, there is considerable interest in achieving a comprehensive understanding of Golgi complex biology.
