NEET 2020 · BiologyEndomembranePrevious Year Question
Which is the important site of formation of glycoproteins and glycolipids in eukaryotic cells?
Answer: (A) Golgi bodies. Answer: (A) Golgi bodies Solution: NCERT states unambiguously that the Golgi apparatus is the important site of formation of glycoproteins and glycolipids.
- A.Golgi bodies✓
- B.Polysomes
- C.Endoplasmic reticulum
- D.Peroxisomes
Correct Answer
(A) Golgi bodies
Solution & Explanation
Answer: (A) Golgi bodies Solution: NCERT states unambiguously that the Golgi apparatus is the important site of formation of glycoproteins and glycolipids. Proteins from the ER are modified in the Golgi cisternae before being released. Polysomes synthesise proteins, the ER synthesises lipids/proteins, and peroxisomes are enzyme-containing microbodies, so they are not the answer. NCERT Reference: Ch 8, p.96, lines 21-22: "Golgi apparatus is the important site of formation of glycoproteins and glycolipids."

BiolGiven below are two statements: One is labelled as Assertion (A) and the other is labelled as Reason (R). Assertion (A): The primary function of the Golgi apparatus is to package the materials made by the endoplasmic reticulum and deliver it to intracellular targets and outside the cell. Reason (R): Vesicles containing materials made by the endoplasmic reticulum fuse with the cis face of the Golgi apparatus, and they are modified and released from the trans face of the Golgi apparatus. In the light of the above statements, choose the correct answer from the options given below:BiolChoose the correct statements regarding cell organelles and their inclusions. A. The endomembrane system includes Golgi complex, endoplasmic reticulum and mitochondria. B. Rough endoplasmic reticulum bears ribosomes on its surface. C. Both mitochondria and plastids have circular DNA. D. A network of microtubules, microfilaments and intermediate filaments present in the cytoplasm is called cytoskeleton. E. Mitochondrion is a single membrane-bound structure.
