NEET (UG) 2025 — Question 131

Given 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:

  1. Option A:

    Both A and R are true and R is the correct explanation of A

    Correct
  2. Option B:

    Both A and R are true but R is not the correct explanation of A

  3. Option C:

    A is true but R is false

  4. Option D:

    A is false but R is true

Answer: A

Step-by-step solution

Assertion correctly states that Golgi apparatus transports materials from endoplasmic reticulum to intracellular targets. Reason correctly explains that vesicles fuse with cis face and are modified before being released from trans face.
