Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]

Which component of the Golgi apparatus is primarily responsible for “receiving” proteins to be packaged and modified?

A	Cisternae
B	Vacuoles
C	Cis Golgi
D	Trans G olgi

Explanation:

Detailed explanation-1: -Explanation: The cis face of the Golgi apparatus is the first part of the apparatus that faces the rough endoplasmic reticulum and interacts with recently synthesized proteins that need to be processed and packaged by the Golgi apparatus.

Detailed explanation-2: -The three primary functions of the Golgi apparatus are the transport, sorting and modification of both protein and lipid, and the protein composition of the organelle reflects these functions.

Detailed explanation-3: -The Golgi apparatus is responsible for transporting, modifying, and packaging proteins and lipids into vesicles for delivery to targeted destinations. As the secretory proteins move through the Golgi apparatus, a number of chemical modifications may transpire.
