Q. Which of the following statements are true about Endoplasmic Reticulum?
(I). Smooth Endoplasmic Reticulum makes lipids.
(II). It is also called the control center of the cell.
(III). It processes carbohydrates.
(IV). It modifies chemicals that are toxic to the cell.

Cell : The Unit of Life

Solution:

Statements I, III and IV are correct, while II is incorrect. Its corrected form is as follows
Endoplasmic reticulum is not the control centre of the cell. Nucleus controls all the activites occurring within the cell and is hence called as the control centre of a cell.
