D)Chromosomes

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The Golgi apparatus plays a crucial role in modifying, sorting, and packaging proteins and lipids for secretion or delivery to other cellular organelles. It receives newly synthesized proteins and lipids from the endoplasmic reticulum and modifies them by adding carbohydrates, phosphates, or sulfates to create functional molecules. It then sorts and packages these molecules in vesicles that bud off from the Golgi and are transported to their final destination within or outside the cell. Ribosomes are involved in protein synthesis, the endoplasmic reticulum is involved in protein and lipid synthesis and transport, and chromosomes contain genetic material.
