Solution

The correct option is B Endoplasmic reticulum
  • A membrane-lined system of channels present throughout the cytoplasm is endoplasmic reticulum.
  • The endoplasmic reticulum (smooth and rough) is an interconnected network of flattened, membrane-enclosed sacs or tube-like structure which are evenly distributed throughout the cytoplasm.
  • It forms a continuous network with the nuclear membrane.
  • It helps in the synthesis of proteins (rough). lipids and carbohydrates (smooth) etc.
  • So, the correct answer is 'Endoplasmic reticulum'.
