Questions and Answers

What is the primary function of the rough endoplasmic reticulum?

  • To transport vesicles to the Golgi apparatus
  • To store calcium ions
  • To synthesize and modify proteins (correct)
  • To produce lipids

Which of the following organelles is responsible for the final processing and packaging of proteins before they are transported to their destination within the cell?

  • Lysosome
  • Nucleus
  • Golgi apparatus (correct)
