Step-by-step solution
Smooth Endoplasmic Reticulum (SER) is the major site for the synthesis of lipids. In animal cells, lipid-like steroidal hormones are synthesized in SER. Rough Endoplasmic Reticulum (RER) bears ribosomes on its outer surface, which are involved in protein synthesis. Prokaryotic cells lack all membrane-bound organelles, including the endoplasmic reticulum. Animal cells contain centrioles (which are absent in almost all plant cells) and possess an endomembrane system. Therefore, the correct matching is (A)-(II), (B)-(
