Answer:

The human skull consists of 22 bones (or 29, including the inner ear bones and hyoid bone) which are mostly connected together by ossified joints, so called sutures. The skull is divided into the braincase (neurocranium) and the facial skeleton (viscerocranium). Its main task is the protection of the most important organ in the human body: the brain.

The brain is almost entirely enclosed by the neurocranium with the exception of the foramen magnum and other foramina at the skull base which serve as entry and exit point for blood vessels and cranial nerves. Also, the skull provides support for all of the facial structures.

After the synthesis of proteins in their various site of production, thses proteins needs to be packaged into vessicle for transport to their destination. Vesicles that bud off from the Endoplasmic reticulum will then fuse with the nearest Golgi apparatus membranes, the cis-Golgi. these vessicles continue to travel using vesicle transport through the Golgi apparatus until they reach the end of the golgi appartus budding off — called the trans-Golgi. they are then transported to wherever they are either - the lysosomes, the plasma membrane etc.
