How do the Golgi apparatus and vesicles interact in an animal cell?

a
The Golgi apparatus synthesizes proteins, and the vesicles package the proteins for transport in the cell.
b
The Golgi apparatus transports proteins, and the vesicles control the transportation of the proteins in the cell.
c
The Golgi apparatus degrades proteins, and the vesicles synthesize replacement proteins in the cell.
d
The Golgi apparatus packages proteins, and the vesicles transport the packages to various locations in the cell.

The correct answer is:

**d** The Golgi apparatus packages proteins, and the vesicles transport the packages to various locations in the cell.

In an animal cell, the Golgi apparatus modifies, sorts, and packages proteins received from the endoplasmic reticulum (ER). Once packaged, these proteins are enclosed in vesicles that then transport them to their destinations, which can include other organelles, the cell membrane, or secretion outside of the cell.
