Step-by-step solution
The endomembrane system includes the endoplasmic reticulum, Golgi complex, lysosomes, and vacuoles. Rough endoplasmic reticulum (RER) bears ribosomes on its surface and is actively involved in protein synthesis and secretion. Smooth endoplasmic reticulum (SER) is the major site for the synthesis of lipids. In animal cells, lipid-like steroidal hormones are synthesized in SER. The Golgi apparatus principally performs the function of packaging materials and is the important site of formation of glycoproteins and glyc
