Why is the Golgi apparatus called the secretary organelle of the cell?

The Golgi body comprises 5 to 8 cup-shaped, series of compartments .

• Its main function is the packaging and secretion of proteins .
• In the Golgi Body the proteins made by the ER are packaged into membrane-bound vesicles (bags).
• These are then transported to various destinations according to the cells need , such as lysosomes, plasma membrane, cell wall or wherever it is required.

   

Hence, the Golgi body assists all organelles with transportation services.

Therefore, it is called the “Secretary” organelle .
