Which of the following statements with respect to Endoplasmic Reticulum is incorrect?

  1. RER has ribosomes attached to ER
  2. SER is devoid of ribosomes
  3. Only RER are present in prokaryotes
  4. SER are the sites for lipid synthesis

Answer

(3) Only RER are present in prokaryotes

Solution

As per NCERT, the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is a network of membranous tubules found in eukaryotic cells; prokaryotes lack membrane-bound organelles, so neither RER nor SER is present in them.

ER bearing ribosomes on its surface is rough ER (RER); ER without ribosomes is smooth ER (SER), the major site for synthesis of lipids.

The statement 'Only RER are present in prokaryotes' is incorrect.

Answer: (3)
