Question

which of the following is a function of the rough endoplasmic reticulum?
a lipid synthesis
b calcium ion storage
c move proteins to their destinations
d drug detoxification

Explanation:

The rough endoplasmic reticulum (RER) has ribosomes attached to its surface and is involved in protein - synthesis and transport. Lipid synthesis occurs in the smooth endoplasmic reticulum. Calcium ion storage is mainly in the smooth endoplasmic reticulum. Drug detoxification is also a function of the smooth endoplasmic reticulum. The RER helps in moving newly - synthesized proteins to their destinations.

Answer:

c. move proteins to their destinations
