The Golgi is.... rather complex. It is also important to note that we have an incomplete knowledge of the Golgi.
As far as we know the Golgi is involved in trafficking to and from the various organelles in the cell. In addition different parts of the Golgi are involved in O and N-linked glycosylation. The Golgi contains some apoptotic proteins so its probably involved in programmed cell death too. They likely package and distribute the proteins.
A good way to understand cells at first to to see them as a factory. This factory manufactures proteins. The membrane forms the walls. There are doors which allow necessary things to come in and go out. The floor of the building contains the cytoplasm. The nucleus is the main office. This is where plans are drafted and drawn up to make proteins. These instructions are sent to the rough endoplasmic reticulum (RER). This is the factory floor. Each work station is a ribosome. These ribosomes make the proteins. The mitochondria are the power houses. The Golgi Body is the shipping and receiving department. It sends out the proteins that the cell makes. The vacuoles are the trash bins. There are also parts which are brought out when needed as in cell division: centrioles and fibers.
The Golgi complex is also known as Golgi bodies. Their purpose is to pack and carry proteins and lipids in the cell.

What organelle packages the material used to build the cell plate in plant cells?
The Golgi body (also know as Golgi apparatus, Golgi complex) has the same purpose in plants as in animals; it organises, packages, and distributes organic compounds (proteins, carbohydrates).
What is Another name for the Golgi Complex?
The Golgi complex is also known as Golgi apparatus, Golgi body or Golgi. It is found in most eukaryotic cells. The Golgi complex was identified by the Italian physician Camillo Golgi in 1897.
Whats the function of Golgi complex?
to transport and eliminate waste out of the cell
Which of the organelles in the animal cell is involved in exocytosis?
Golgi complex
What is the name of the complex that forms vesicles?
The complex that forms vesicles is the golgi apparatus or golgi body.
What part of a cell sorts and packages proteins?
The packaging and sorting of proteins is a function of the Golgi complex also known as the Golgi apparatus.
Compare and contrast the function of endoplasmic reticulum and the Golgi complex?
The Golgi Complex packages and distributes proteins. The ER makes proteins.
What function does golgi have?
the membrane-bound organelle that packages and distributes materials, such as proteins, is called the GOLGI COMPLEX.
What are organelles that function in cell division?
Golgi complex - cellplate nucleus - cell division
Which membranous organelle chemically modifies and ships proteins to other organelles or out of the cell?
The organelle that performs the function stated in the question is the Golgi body, or Golgi apparatus.
What organelle packages the material used to build the cell plate in plant cells?
The Golgi body (also know as Golgi apparatus, Golgi complex) has the same purpose in plants as in animals; it organises, packages, and distributes organic compounds (proteins, carbohydrates).
What is Another name for the Golgi Complex?
The Golgi complex is also known as Golgi apparatus, Golgi body or Golgi. It is found in most eukaryotic cells. The Golgi complex was identified by the Italian physician Camillo Golgi in 1897.
Whats the function of Golgi complex?
to transport and eliminate waste out of the cell
What is the Golgi complex function?
The primary function of the Golgi apparatus is to process and package Macromolecule, such as Proteinand Lipid, after their synthesis and before they make their way to their destination; it is particularly important in the processing of proteins for Secretion. The Golgi apparatus forms a part of the cellular Endomembrane_system.
Where is located the Golgi complex?
Golgi complex are present in a living cell. It is present in the cytoplasm of the cell. There number may vary depending on the cell type.In prokaryotic organisms they are without their outer membrane.There main function is the transport of Ribosomes throughout the cell.
What are two function of the Golgi complex?
The two main functions of the Golgi are to receive modified proteins from the ER and subject them to further modification. Then these proteins are packaged in vesicles and shipped to where they are needed in the cell and outside the cell where they are needed. Another function of the Golgi is the synthesis of lysosomes.
How is the Golgi Complex related to a school?
a Golgi complex ls like a janitor
