Golgi apparatus is located in? and does ?

Answer 1

Golgi appartus- transport vesicles from the ER usually come here. The golgi is the center of manufacture, warehousing, sorting and shipping. Consists of flattened membrane sacs called cisternae that unlike the ER are NOT connected; looking like a stack of pita bread. A golgi stack receives and dispatches transport vesicles. Two poles of golgi: one is the cis face (receiving side near the ER) and the other is the trans face (shipping side). Vesicles from the ER fuse with the Golgi membrane. The trans face gives rise to vesicles, which pinch off. Products from the ER are usually modified from the cis to the trans face (i.e. alteration of proteins or phospholipids of membranes). Also, makes macromolecules by itself: noncellulose polysaccharides. Before transport, the products are targeted and sorted with molecular identification tags. Transport vesicles depart and eventually fuse with the plasma membrane.

Answer 2

Golgi Apparatus is located in both the animal and plant cell

The Golgi apparatus looks like a flattened stack of membranes piled one upon the other, like a stack of pancakes. The Golgi Apparatus modifies, collects, packages, and distributes molecules at one location of the cell and used at another.

(the golgi apparatus modifies proteins by attaching carbohydrates or lipids to the proteins. The modified proteins can then be transported from one part of a cell to another)

Hope this helps a bit :)
