The cis face of the Golgi apparatus receives materials from the endoplasmic reticulum throughtransport vesicles; therefore, it is located nearest to the
Correct answer: B. Nuclear membrane
- A. Plasma membrane
- B. Nuclear membrane
- C. Vacuolar membrane
- D. Mitochondrial membrane
Explanation
The cis face of the Golgi apparatus is the side that receives transport vesicles containing proteins from the endoplasmic reticulum. It is located near the nuclear membrane, where the endoplasmic reticulum is also situated. This proximity facilitates the transfer of materials. The other options are incorrect because the plasma membrane, vacuolar membrane, and mitochondrial membrane are not positioned or involved in this specific transport pathway.
