A protein that is destined to reach the plasma membrane is making its way through the Golgi.At that moment,a drug was added to cells,blocking trafficking at the trans face of the Golgi.As a result,what would happen to the protein?
A)The protein would continue on to the cell surface.
B)The protein would be stuck in the Golgi.
C)The protein would return to the endoplasmic reticulum via the trans face of the Golgi.
D)The protein would exit the Golgi,but instead be targeted to the cytoplasm.

Blocking trafficking at the trans face of the Golgi would prevent the protein from leaving the Golgi and reaching its intended destination at the plasma membrane. Therefore, the protein would be stuck in the Golgi.
