It specializes in the synthesis and transport of protein and lipid components of most of the organelles What is the Golgi complex and what does it do? - Answera network of smooth membranes and vesicles located near the nucleus. The Golgi complex is responsible for processing and packaging proteins into secretory vesicles What are lysosomes and what do they do? - Answersaclike structures that originate from the Golgi complex and contain digestive enzymes. These enzymes are responsible for digesting most cellular substances to their basic form, such as amino acids, fatty acids, and carbohydrates What are peroxisomes? - Answerinvolved in the production and breakdown of hydrogen peroxide
