Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
This is part of the endoplasmic reticulum that is used to make proteins that will be used by other cells. It is lined with ribosomes.
A
Vesicles
B
Lysosomes
C
Rough ER
D
Smooth ER
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -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 endoplasmic reticulum (RER) is so named for the appearance of its outer surface, which is studded with protein-synthesizing particles known as ribosomes.

Detailed explanation-3: -Proteins synthesized by the rough ER include the prominent milk protein casein, and whey proteins. These proteins are packaged into secretory vesicles or large micelles and travel through the Golgi network before fusing with the plasma membrane, releasing their contents into milk ducts.

Detailed explanation-4: -Plasma membrane and lysosomal proteins also travel from the rough ER to the Golgi and then to their final destinations. Still other proteins travel through the initial steps of the secretory pathway but are then retained and function within either the ER or the Golgi apparatus.

Detailed explanation-5: -Its composition has two components: the smooth endoplasmic reticulum (SER) and the rough endoplasmic reticulum (RER). The SER is generally used for the creation/ storage of lipids and steroids, while the RER plays a significant role in the synthesis of various proteins.
