The Golgi apparatus is like the cell's post office.
It helps organize, change, and package things the cell makes.
Here’s how it works:
Receiving: It gets proteins and lipids from another part of the cell called the endoplasmic reticulum (ER).
Modifying: Inside the Golgi, special substances called enzymes change these molecules by adding sugars or phosphates.
Shipping: Finally, it packs them up into tiny bubbles called vesicles, so they can be sent to where they need to go.
This way, everything made by the cell gets delivered to the right spot, inside or outside the cell!
