What is the job of the endoplasmic reticulum?
A
Transport materials
B
Controls cell functions
C
Store food
D
Controls what enters and exits the cell
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Endoplasmic Reticulum is mainly responsible for the transportation of proteins and other carbohydrates to another organelle, which includes lysosomes, Golgi apparatus, plasma membrane, etc.

Detailed explanation-2: -From the endoplasmic reticulum, proteins are transported in vesicles to the Golgi apparatus, where they are further processed and sorted for transport to lysosomes, the plasma membrane, or secretion from the cell.

Detailed explanation-3: -Endoplasmic Reticulum The ER has two major functions: Transport: Molecules, such as proteins, can move from place to place inside the ER, much like on an intracellular highway. Synthesis: Ribosomes that are attached to ER, similar to unattached ribosomes, make proteins. Lipids are also produced in the ER.

Detailed explanation-4: -Endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is a tube-like structure present in the cell, which extends all over the cell. The ER facilities transport of materials from one part of the cell to another, thus, forming the cell’s circulatory system.
