A
smooth ER
B
rough ER
C
bumpy ER
D
simple ER
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Smooth endoplasmic reticulum lacks ribosomes and helps synthesize and concentrate various substances needed by the cell.

Detailed explanation-2: -The most basic difference between RER and SER is the presence of ribosomes. When ribosomes attach to the surface of an ER, it gives a characteristic rough appearance; hence it is called Rough ER. On the other hand, a smooth ER does not have ribosomes on its surface.

Detailed explanation-3: -The rough endoplasmic reticulum has on it ribosomes, which are small, round organelles whose function it is to make those proteins. Sometimes, when those proteins are made improperly, the proteins stay within the endoplasmic reticulum.
