Who first described the Golgi apparatus?, Camillo Golgi, What are the flattened membrane-bound sacs in the Golgi apparatus called?, Cisternae, In which cells is Golgi apparatus found?, It is found in eukaryotic cells., What are cisternae?, Flattened membrane-bound sacs of Golgi apparatus are called cisternae., Which organelle is involved in the formation of Lysosomes?, Golgi apparatus, Name the two faces of Golgi apparatus., ✮ Cis face ✮Trans face, Mention the main functions of the Golgi apparatus., ✮Storage, modification and packaging of products in vesicles.✮ Modifies proteins and lipids received from ER✮Golgi complex is the secretory organ of the cell.✮It produces vacuoles and secretory vesicles.✮It helps in the formation of cell wall, plasma membrane and lysosomes.✮Packages proteins into vesicles for transport.✮Transports materials to:✦Cell membrane✦Lysosomes✦Other organelles., Describe the structure of the Golgi apparatus., ✮The Golgi apparatus consists of a system of membrane-bound vesicles called cisternae.✮These cisternae are arranged parallel to each other in stacks.✮Usually located near the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and nucleus.✮It acts as a processing and packaging center, often having complex network-like connections with other cellular membranes like the ER.✮Has two distinct faces:✦Cis face (forming face): Receives proteins and lipids from ER.✦Trans face (maturing face): Sends modified materials to different parts of the cell.✭Small vesicles are seen around the Golgi apparatus., How is the Golgi apparatus connected to the Endoplasmic Reticulum (ER)?, The materials synthesized near the ER are packaged and dispatched to various targets inside and outside the cell through the Golgi apparatus. Its membranes often have connections with ER membranes..
