is called ____________ ______________________________ or ________________________________________.
9. See Figure 7-9. What does the Golgi apparatus do to proteins? _______________________________________________________________
10. The Golgi apparatus is somewhat like a ___________________________, where
the finishing touches are put on proteins before they are ready to leave the
"factory."
11. One function of __________________________ is the digestion, or breakdown,
of lipids, carbohydrates, and proteins into ________________________________
