Solution
The correct option is D E.R. The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is a system of membrane-lined channels found in all eukaryotic cells except mature erythrocytes. It constitutes more than 30 to 60 percent of total cell membranes. The membranes of ER act as an ultrastructural skeletal framework in the cell and provide mechanical support as it helps in formation and transportation of protein and lipid in membrane biogenesis.
