Answer:

A. Golgi apparatus

Explanation:

The proteins are synthesised in the ribosomes attached to the endoplasmic reticulum.

The synthesised proteins have to be destined to perform various function sin the cells which need modification of the proteins. The organelle which provides a site for this modification is known as the Golgi apparatus.

In the given question since the protein synthesised by the ribosome differs from the protein when it becomes part of the plasma membrane, therefore, some modification like in the given case prenylation and farnesylation takes place in the Golgi apparatus.

Thus, the Golgi apparatus is correct.

The cells that respond to changes in blood gas concentration and generate the respiratory rhythm are found in several nuclei in
levacccp [35]

The answer is; medulla oblongata and pons.  

In this region of the brain, there are chemoreceptors that can detect changes in the pH of the blood. These are called central chemoreceptor. There are also chemoreceptors in the arteries called peripheral chemoreceptors. When these chemoreceptors detect a drop in the blood PH (due to increased dissolved carbon dioxide in the blood), the depth and rate of breathing is increased in the lungs.
