Solution

The correct option is A Endoplasmic reticulum
The endoplasmic reticulum is of two types on the basis of the presence of ribosomes. If the endoplasmic reticulum ribosomes attached to them then it is called as rough endoplasmic reticulum and if there are no ribosomes on endoplasmic reticulum then it is called a smooth endoplasmic reticulum. Rough endoplasmic reticulum produces and transports protein and smooth endoplasmic reticulum produces and transports lipid which provides a framework to the plasma membrane by a known as membrane biogenesis.
