The Golgi complex participated in
Options
- ARespiration in bacteria
- BFormation of secretory vesicles
- CFatty acid breakdown
- DActivation of amino acid
Correct answer
B. Formation of secretory vesicles
Step-by-step solution
Golgi complex participates in the formation of secretory vesicles. It is a cytoplasmic structure found in eukaryotic cells. It is made up of four parts; cisternae, tubules, vesicles, and vacuoles.
The forming face or cisternae receives vesicles from the endoplasmic reticulum. Their contents pass through various cisternae with the help of coated vesicles and intracisternal connectives. They ultimately reach the maturing face where they are budded off as, coated secretory or Golgi vesicles.
In bacteria, respiration occurs with the help of mesosomes since they lack cell organelles. The breakdown of fatty acid occurs in peroxisomes and mitochondria. Activation of the amino acid is an important step in protein synthesis and it occurs in the cytoplasm. In this process, amino acids get attached to tRNA molecules.
