Detailed Solution

The above given statement is true.
Concept: The cisternae are flattened membrane vesicles of the endoplasmic reticulum and thus vesicles. A Golgi stack can have three to twenty cisterns, but the majority have six.
Each type of cistern contains a unique set of enzymes to prevent enzymatic activity from becoming redundant. The majority of the dictyosome's cisterns have multiple stacking. Cisternae modifies and packs proteins and polysaccharides. Biosynthetic cargo proteins pass through cisterns and undergo glycan remodelling and other modifications. Cisternae packages the proteins before delivering them to the transport carrier. They also contain polysaccharides synthesised within the dictyosome. Cisternae, particularly those found in Golgi bodies, exhibit multiple stacking. The endoplasmic reticulum is linked to these cisterns.
Hence, the correct answer is option 1.
