Question

the golgi apparatus (golgi body)
what would happen if the golgi bodies in the cell were destroyed?
a. the cell would spontaneously combust.
b. the cell would no longer be able to make cell energy.
c. the cell would have difficulty processing and transporting proteins.
d. the cell would not be able to store dna effectively.

Explanation:

To solve this, we analyze the function of the Golgi apparatus:

• Option A: Cells don't spontaneously combust, so A is incorrect.
• Option B: Energy production is mainly by mitochondria, not Golgi, so B is wrong.
• Option C: Golgi apparatus processes, modifies, and transports proteins (and lipids). Destroying it would hinder this, so C is correct.
• Option D: DNA storage is in the nucleus, not related to Golgi, so D is incorrect.

Answer:

C. The cell would have difficulty processing and transporting proteins.
