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'.
