In a classic experiment, pancreatic acinar cells (which secrete digestive enzymes) were pulsed with radioactive amino acids. The path of the labeled proteins was tracked. What is the correct sequence of organelles through which the radioactivity would pea
1. Nucleus → Golgi apparatus → Rough Endoplasmic Reticulum → Secretory Vesicles
2. Rough Endoplasmic Reticulum → Golgi apparatus → Secretory Vesicles → Cell Exterior
3. Golgi apparatus → Rough Endoplasmic Reticulum → Lysosomes → Cell Exterior
4. Cytosol → Smooth Endoplasmic Reticulum → Golgi apparatus → Secretory Vesicles
Subtopic:  Golgi Apparatus | Endomembrane System (Endoplasmic Reticulum) |

During cytokinesis in plant cells, the cell plate forms through:
1. Invagination of cell wall material from existing lateral walls
2. Fusion of vesicles derived from Golgi apparatus at the equatorial plane
3. Constriction of plasma membrane from periphery toward centre
4. Separation of sister chromatids followed by membrane formation

The organelle responsible for cell wall, cell plate and middle lamella formation is:
1. Endoplasmic reticulum synthesising materials
2. Golgi apparatus packaging secretions
3. Ribosomes producing structural proteins
4. Mitochondria providing required energy

Consider the given two statements:
A: The Golgi apparatus remains in close association with the endoplasmic reticulum.
B: Golgi apparatus is an important site of formation of glycoproteins and glycolipids.

1. Both A and B are correct and B explains A
2. Both A and B are correct but B does not explain A
3. Only A is correct
4. Only B is correct
