Question

multiple - choice question which of the following is a function of the endoplasmic reticulum (er)? makes ribosomes protects the cell controls the cell

Explanation:

The endoplasmic reticulum is involved in protein and lipid synthesis, not in making ribosomes (that's the nucleolus), protecting the cell (cell - membrane and cell - wall do that), or controlling the cell (nucleus does that). But among the given options, none are correct functions of the ER. However, if we assume we are looking for the 'least wrong' in a basic cell - function context, none of these are accurate for the ER.

Answer:

None of the above options are correct functions of the endoplasmic reticulum.
