Endoplasmic Reticulum are rough because of _____ present on their surface.

Golgi bodies

Plastids

Lysosomes

Ribosomes

- The rough endoplasmic reticulum (RER) is rough because it has ribosomes on its surface.

- Correct Answer: Option 4, Ribosomes

- Ribosomes are the sites of protein synthesis and give the RER its characteristic spotty appearance.

- Option 1, Golgi bodies: These are involved in packaging and sorting proteins, not related to a rough surface on the ER.

- Option 2, Plastids: Found in plant cells, but not related to the ER.

- Option 3, Lysosomes: Contain enzymes for digestion, not linked to the rough ER.
