Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Stacks of cisternae that store, alter, and package synthesized products are a characteristic feature of the Golgi apparatus. The Golgi apparatus is involved in modifying, sorting, and packaging proteins and lipids for transportation to their final destination within the cell or for secretion outside the cell. The smooth and rough endoplasmic reticulum function in protein synthesis and lipid metabolism, respectively. The nucleus contains genetic information and is involved in transcription and regulation of gene expression. The mitochondria are involved in energy production through cellular respiration.
