Solution
Lipids and proteins constituting the cell membrane are synthesized in the endoplasmic reticulum.
- SER (Smooth endoplasmic reticulum) helps in the manufacturing of lipids.
- RER (Rough endoplasmic reticulum) has particles attached to its surface, called ribosomes. These ribosomes are the site for protein synthesis.
