Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The Golgi apparatus is responsible for modifying, sorting, and packaging proteins and lipids for transport to their final destinations within the cell or for export outside the cell. Similarly, a shipping center in a company would be responsible for packaging and shipping products to their final destinations. Mitochondria are responsible for energy production, chloroplasts are only found in plant cells and are responsible for photosynthesis, and the nucleolus is responsible for the production of ribosomes. None of these organelles have a clear analogy to a shipping center in a company.
