Is Golgi Complex Called Dictyosomes?
The Golgi Apparatus Is Part of the Membrane System That Also Contains the Er. It Consists of Stacked Membrane-Coated Cavities, Called Dictyosomes (Fig. 1.4B)...
The Golgi apparatus is part of the membrane system that also contains the ER. It consists of stacked membrane-coated cavities, called dictyosomes (Fig. 1.4B). The Golgi apparatus is located close to the nucleus and can be very large in secretory cells, where it fills almost the complete cytoplasm.
Why Golgi bodies are called dictyosomes?
In the vesicles of Golgi apparatus, the proteins are processed and sorted for future secretion, storage, transport etc. Usually, the plant cells contain smaller Golgi Apparatus type vesicles, which are called dictyosomes. Thanks.
What is the Golgi complex also called?
(GOL-jee KOM-plex) A stack of small flat sacs formed by membranes inside the cell's cytoplasm (gel-like fluid). The Golgi complex prepares proteins and lipid (fat) molecules for use in other places inside and outside the cell. The Golgi complex is a cell organelle. Also called Golgi apparatus and Golgi body.
