Characteristics Each sac is called dictyosome In a prokaryote cell we cannot find it, as it has no organelles. Is a membranous structure


Functions Distribute the proteins created in the cell One of the most important functions is the creation of lyosomes. Envelop molecules to then be moved to the exit of the cell


Location It is located in both cells in animal and in plant cells
