vesicles
the golgi apparatus (also known as the golgi body and the golgi complex) is composed of separate sacs called cisternae. its shape is similar to a stack of pancakes. the number of these stacks varies with the specific function of the cell. the golgi apparatus is used by the cell for further protein modification. the section of the golgi apparatus that receives the vesicles from the er is known as the cis face, and is usually near the er. the opposite end of the golgi apparatus is called the trans face, this is where the modified compounds leave. the trans face is usually facing the plasma membrane, which is where most of the substances the golgi apparatus modifies are sent.

owing to its large size and distinctive structure, the golgi apparatus was one of the first organelles to be discovered and observed in detail. it was discovered in 1898 by italian physician camillo golgi during an investigation of the nervous system. after first observing it under his microscope, he termed the structure as "apparato reticolare interno" ("internal reticular apparatus"). some doubted the discovery at first, arguing that the appearance of the structure was merely an optical illusion created by the observation technique used by golgi. with the development of modern microscopes in the 20th century, the discovery was confirmed. early references to the golgi apparatus referred to it by various names including the "golgi–holmgren apparatus", "golgi–holmgren ducts", and "golgi–kopsch apparatus". the term "golgi apparatus" was used in 1910 and first appeared in the scientific literature in 1913, while "golgi complex" was introduced in 1956.
