Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]

____ attached to rough endoplasmic reticulum. ____ The roughest living tissue was attached to the ____

A	Lysosomes are lysosomes
B	Ribosomes
C	Both

Explanation:

Detailed explanation-1: -Ribosomes on the rough endoplasmic reticulum are called ‘membrane bound’ and are responsible for the assembly of many proteins. This process is called translation. Certain cells of the pancreas and digestive tract produce a high volume of protein as enzymes.

Detailed explanation-2: -Proteins are assembled at organelles called ribosomes. When proteins are destined to be part of the cell membrane or exported from the cell, the ribosomes assembling them attach to the endoplasmic reticulum, giving it a rough appearance.

Detailed explanation-3: -Rough ER is named for its rough appearance, which is due to the ribosomes attached to its outer (cytoplasmic) surface. Rough ER lies immediately adjacent to the cell nucleus, and its membrane is continuous with the outer membrane of the nuclear envelope.
