Presentation Transcript

  1. Golgi Bodies Often referred as the Golgi apparatus, it is a flattened stack of membranes that modifies, sorts, and packages proteins into sacs called vesicles

  2. Location The Golgi body is located in the cytoplasm of the cell it is a free floating structure. They are found throughout the cell so they may packaged protein ore efficiently.

  3. Function • The Golgi bodies receive the proteins from the endoplasmic reticulum, then wraps them in a membrane( the whole package is called a vesicle) and sends them on their way. They are also closely related with the ribosome because ribosome are called the protein synthesis plants of a cell since they put together protein they then get transported and shipped by the Golgi body. • They also function in only eukaryotic cells

  4. Structure • It is composed of flattened stacks of membranes
