  2. It modifies some of these proteins and lipids and sorts them, as well as some molecules that were synthesized in the Golgi apparatus itself.

  3. It packages these molecules into vesicles.

  4. Some of these vesicles deliver their contents to other parts of the cell where they will be used. Other vesicles fuse with the cell membrane, releasing their contents outside the cell. In the process, the Golgi apparatus produces and modifies
