Q. Golgi bodies are absent in

Chhattisgarh PMTChhattisgarh PMT 2004

Solution:

At various locations within the endomembrane system, flattened stacks of membranes are found. These structures are called Golgi bodies. These are discovered by Camillo Golgi in $1989$. It is present in all eukaryotic cells. In plants, these are scattered irregularly in the cytoplasm and called as "dictyosomes". These are absent in bacteria, blue-green algae, RBCs, spermatozoa of bryophytes and pteridophytes and sieve tubes of phloem of angiosperm.
