Answers
The functions of Golgi Bodies are as follows :
i) Golgi Bodies plays a major role in packing and processing of proteins.
ii) Golgi Bodies helps in the process of glycosylation of amino acids and glycosidation of fats.
iii) It is responsible for formation of plasma membrane during the process of cytokinesis.
iv) It also helps to transport the secretions both within and outside the cell.
v) Golgi Bodies helps in the formation of Lysosomes.
Golgi complex is an important cell organelle which is present in the eukaryotic cell
Functions and Importance of Golgi complex:
•Packaging and protection of materials like proteins
•Produces the lysosome,the cell organelle which devours the foreign material inside the cell
•Transportation of materials inside the cell and to other cells
•Packaging of substances like insulin,lipids and pectins is also a function of the Golgi Apparatus
•These materials are mainly transported into the lysosome,plasma membrane and outside the cell
★Golgi Complex was discovered by Camilo Golgi
