Solution

The correct option is A Protein Synthesis
SER or Smooth Endoplasmic Reticulum is associated with lipid and glycogen synthesis. Steroid hormones are also lipid like i.e., progesterone, estrogen. RER or Rough Endoplasmic Reticulum contains ribosomes. Ribosomes are protein factories. Therefore RER is associated with protein synthesis.
