Study Notes
Golgi Apparatus Structure
- Consists of a system of membrane-bound vesicles (flattened sacs) arranged in stacks called cisterns

Golgi Apparatus Functions
- Packages and dispatches synthesised material to various targets inside and outside the cell
- Stores, modifies, and packages products in vesicles
- Involved in the formation of lysosomes
- Synthesises complex sugars from simple sugars in some cases
