Solution
The correct option is
A
RER
Nissl granules can be defined as a large granular body found in the nerve cells or neurons.
They are also known as Nissl substance or Nissl body or Nissl materials which are stained with basic dyes.
They are formed by rough endoplasmic reticulum (RER) having rosettes of free ribosomes (polyribosomes) which are a site of protein synthesis.
So, the correct answer is 'RER'.
