    The Golgi apparatus is an organelle found in eukaryotic cells that packages proteins into vesicles for secretion. It is composed of 5-8 flattened sacs called cisternae that contain enzymes modifying proteins as they pass through. Ranging from 20-200 nanometers in size, the Golgi apparatus is located in the cytoplasm near the endoplasmic reticulum and cell nucleus, where it plays a key role in the secretory pathway.

    GOLGI APPARATUS

    By: Richard Suwandy & Nixon Budilaksmono


    STRUCTURE

     The Golgi is made up of 5-8 folds called  cisternae. The cisternae contain specific
    enzymes creating five functional regions which modify proteins passing through
    them.
    FUNCTION

     The Golgi Apparatus is responsible for packaging proteins into vesicles prior to
    secretion and therefore plays a key role in the secretory pathway.
    SIZE

     Golgi Apparatus is the size of 20 nm – 200 nanometre and appear irregular in


    shape.
    PRESENT IN

     The Golgi Apparatus is present in eukaryotic cells (cells with a clearly defined
    nuclei), it is also located in the cytoplasm next to the endoplasmic reticulum and
    near the cell nucleus.
