If the rough endoplasmic reticulum malfunctions, the following would not happen:

1. The ribosomes will be malformed.
Explanation: The rough endoplasmic reticulum is the site where ribosomes are attached and involved in protein synthesis. If the rough endoplasmic reticulum malfunctions, it would not directly affect the structure or function of ribosomes. Ribosomes would still be able to function independently in the cytoplasm to carry out protein synthesis.

Therefore, if the rough endoplasmic reticulum malfunctions, the ribosomes themselves would not be malformed as a direct consequence of this malfunction.
