During the 1940s and 1950s, McClintock discovered a phenomenon in maize known as transposition and used it to demonstrate that genes are responsible for turning physical characteristics on and off. Earlier she named such genes as jumping genes. She had won the 1983's Nobel in Physiology or Medicine for her work on genetic structure of maize.
Correct Option: C

The Golgi complex and rough ER work closely. When a protein is made in the ER, then transition vesicles are synthesized. These vesicles float through the cytoplasm to the Golgi apparatus and are absorbed. After the Golgi does its work on the molecules inside the sac or the vesicle a secretory vesicle is created and released into the cytoplasm. So the main function of the Golgi bodies is secretion.
