The correct option is A Smooth endoplasmic reticulum (SER) and ribosomes respectively
Lipid synthesis takes place in the smooth endoplasmic reticulum and protein is synthesized by the ribosomes of rough endoplasmic reticulum. They are the types of the endoplasmic reticulum. The lipids and proteins synthesized by the smooth endoplasmic reticulum and ribosomes respectively help in the construction of plasma membrane by the process of membrane biogenesis.
