If you identified a cell with large amounts of rough ER, which would NOT be a logical conclusion about that cell?

A. Large quantities of enzymes for biochemical processes are manufactured by that cell.
B. Large amounts of protein hormone are exported by the cell.
C. Digestive enzymes for export are manufactured by that cell.
D. Membrane lipids are produced by that cell.

(Note: The rough ER is primarily involved in protein synthesis, not lipid production.)

Final answer:

The rough ER does not primarily manufacture enzymes for biochemical processes or export protein hormones, but it does play a role in producing membrane proteins and phospholipids.


Explanation:

The logical conclusion that would NOT be made about a cell with large amounts of rough ER:

  1. Large quantities of enzymes for biochemical processes are manufactured by that cell. Rough ER mainly deals with protein synthesis and folding, not enzyme production.
  2. Large amounts of protein hormone are exported by the cell. Protein hormones are commonly processed by the rough ER, not the smooth ER.

Interestingly, the rough ER produces membrane proteins and phospholipids, not membrane lipids, which is a function of the smooth ER.
