Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Which of the following cell organelles is covered in ribosomes and is used for manufacturing and transporting proteins to the Golgi?
A
Endoplasmic Reticulum
B
Mitochondria
C
Ribosome
D
Lysosome
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The endoplasmic reticulum can either be smooth or rough, and in general its function is to produce proteins for the rest of the cell to function. The rough endoplasmic reticulum has on it ribosomes, which are small, round organelles whose function it is to make those proteins.

Detailed explanation-2: -The rough ER, which is covered by ribosomes on its outer surface, functions in protein processing.

Detailed explanation-3: -Explanation : Nucleolus is a darkly pigmented portion of nucleus . It produces rRNA which moves from there to cytoplasm and join with proteins to form ribosomes. So it concludes that nucleolus is the portion of cell which forms ribosomes.

Detailed explanation-4: -Ribosomes. Ribosomes are the protein factories of the cell.

Detailed explanation-5: -COPII-coated vesicles transport cargo proteins from the ER to the Golgi; COPI-coated vesicles transport cargo in the retrograde direction (from the cis-Golgi back to the ER) and between Golgi cisternae; and clathrin-coated vesicles form from the plasma membrane and the TGN to fuse with endosomes or lysosomes (Fig. 1).
