Statement present in option 2 is incorrect because the trans and cis faces of the Golgi complex are distinct and have different functions. The cis face is the receiving end, where vesicles from the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) fuse and deliver their contents to the Golgi for processing. The trans face is the shipping end, where the processed molecules leave the Golgi complex in vesicles to be transported to their final destinations. Hence, the correct answer is option 2.
