Question

What would happen to the life of a cell if there were no Golgi Apparatus? List three points​

Answer 1

Answer:

In the absence of the Golgi apparatus, lysosomes would not be produced, and the accumulation of dead and damaged organelles and molecules in the cell would ultimately result in cell death. If the Golgi apparatus is not present the packaging and transport of materials would cease.

The Golgi apparatus is responsible for :-

1. Transporting
2. Modifying
3. Packaging proteins and lipids into vesicles for delivery to targeted destinations.

Explanation:

If there were no Golgi bodies, the proteins in cells would float around without direction. Other cells and organs in the body would not function properly without the products that the Golgi body normally sends. In the absence of the Golgi apparatus, lysosomes would not be produced, and the accumulation of dead and damaged organelles and molecules in the cell would ultimately result in cell death. As the distribution and shipping centre for the cell’s chemical products, the Golgi apparatus alters proteins and lipids and gets them ready for transport to other locations within or outside the cell. The Golgi apparatus processes proteins for secretions that contain enzymes that attach sugar monomers to proteins. If the Golgi apparatus is not present the packaging and transport of materials would cease. The secretory activities of the cell would also cease. The acrosome develops during the spermatogenesis and is the product of the Golgi complex. If the Golgi apparatus is absent, then acrosome formation doesn’t take place.
