Once proteins are moved to the Golgi apparatus, what is the role of this organelle?

A. to use proteins as an energy source

B. to link amino acid chains to proteins

C. to process, sort, and deliver proteins

D. to protect proteins from bacteria

The best answer is C

One of the jobs or functions of the Golgi apparatus is to process and bundle macromolecules like proteins as they are synthesized within the cell. The Golgi apparatus is sometimes compared to a post office inside the cell since one major function is to modify, sort, and package proteins to be secreted.

Golgi apparatus is an organelle present in most eukaryotic cells and is made up of membrane bound sacs. It is also referred to a Golgi body, Golgi complex or dictyosome.
