Figure 2.16b The Golgi Apparatus EXTRACELLULAR FLUID CYTOSOL Membrane renewal vesicles Lysosome Secretory Cisternae vesicle Maturing (trans) face This diagram shows the functional link between the ER and the Golgi apparatus. Golgi structure has been simplified to clarify the relationships between the membranes. Transport vesicles carry the secretory product from the endoplasmic reticulum to the Golgi apparatus, and transfer vesicles move membrane and materials between the Golgi cisternae. At the Forming maturing face, three functional categories of vesicles (cis) face develop. Secretory vesicles carry the secretion from Transport the Golgi to the cell surface, where exocytosis vesicle releases the contents into the extracellular fluid. Other vesicles add surface area and integral proteins to the plasmalemma. Lysosomes, which remain in the cytoplasm, are vesicles filled with enzymes. © 2012 Pearson Education, Inc.

Function 3: The lysosomal membrane breaks down following injury to, or death of, the cell. The digestive enzymes then attack the Golgi cytoplasm in a destructive apparatus process known as autolysis.
