Correct Answer: Ribosomes


Solution : The correct option is Ribosomes.

When the cytoplasmic surface of the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is covered with Ribosomes, it is referred to as "rough". When seen under a microscope, these ribosomes give the rough endoplasmic reticulum its distinctive look. The presence of ribosomes on the rough ER suggests that this region of the ER is engaged in protein synthesis.
