Which of the following best describes the function of the Golgi apparatus?

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The Golgi apparatus is the cell organelle responsible for packaging, processing, and shipping proteins from the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) throughout the cell.
Ribosomes read RNA produced in the nucleus and translate the genetic instructions provided to produce proteins. Cells with a high rate of protein synthesis typically contain a high number of ribosomes.
Lysosomes contain hydrolytic enzymes allowing lysosomes to hydrolyze (break down) proteins, fats, sugars, and nucleic acids inside of the cell. Lysosomes contain an acidic environment with a pH of around 4.5.
Vacuoles are membrane-enclosed structures that have a variety of functions depending on cell type. Many cells uptake food through the cell membrane (this process is called phagocytosis), creating a food vacuole. Plant cells have a central vacuole that functions as storage, waste disposal, protection, and hydrolysis.
