Cargo proteins are transported through the Golgi apparatus to the trans-Golgi network, where they are sorted into various vesicles that are targeted to different destinations. What is the role of vesicles in cargo protein transport through the Golgi apparatus?

What is the function of the Golgi vesicles?
Madhur L.
What transport method do you think the Golgi apparatus uses to ship packages of proteins out of the cell?
Vesicle transport occurs between the ER and the Golgi in both directions. Let's suppose a researcher exposed some cells to a drug that inhibited vesicle transport from the Golgi to the ER but did not affect vesicle transport from the ER to the Golgi. If you observed the cells microscopically after the drug was added, what would you expect to see happen over the course of 1 hour? a. The ER would get smaller, and the Golgi would get larger. b. The ER would get larger, and the Golgi would get smaller. c. The ER and Golgi would stay the same size. d. Both the ER and Golgi would get larger. e. Both the ER and Golgi would get smaller.
