Final answer:

The Golgi apparatus processes and organizes cellular products from the Rough ER and packages them for transport within and outside the cell.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Golgi apparatus is responsible for sorting, modifying, and packaging products from the Rough Endoplasmic Reticulum (ER), and also produces new organelles called lysosomes. Proteins and other products from the ER are sent to the Golgi apparatus, which organizes, modifies, packages, and tags them. Some of these products are transported to other areas of the cell, while others are exported from the cell through exocytosis. Enzymatic proteins are packaged as new lysosomes.
