Explanation

The Golgi apparatus modifies proteins and lipids by adding carbohydrate chains, resulting in the formation of glycoproteins and glycolipids. Ribosomes synthesize proteins, the cytosol is the fluid portion of the cytoplasm, and the endoplasmic reticulum is involved in protein and lipid synthesis but not in carbohydrate addition.
