The external ear structure is called the Pinna.

The Pinna helps to channel sound waves into the ear.

Many animals have the ability to move their pinna towards the direction of sound.

I have attached an image of a dog's ear to show you the external structure called the Pinna.

I hope this helps! I'm happy to answer any other questions you might have :)

loris [4]

Answer:

Golgi receives a vesicle containing newly synthesized proteins that were sent by the endoplasmatic reticulum. Then it modifies the proteins and sends them where they need to go.

Explanation:

Protein synthesis is initiated in the cytoplasm when mRNA meets a free ribosome, which is the primary structure for protein synthesis. They read the mRNA code and add the correct amino acid using transference RNA to build the protein. The synthesizing protein is driven to the rough endoplasmic reticulum and translocated to the lumen. Once there, the protein suffers a few modifications, one of them is folding to become functional. Once membrane proteins are folded in the interior of the endoplasmic reticulum, they are packaged into vesicles and sent to the Golgi complex, where it occurs the final association of carbohydrates with proteins. The Golgi complex sends proteins to their different destinies. Proteins destined to a certain place are packaged all together in the same vesicle and sent to the target organ. In the case of membrane proteins, they are packaged in vesicles and sent to the cell membrane where they get incrusted.
