A) Ribosomes make proteins that travel through the Golgi bodies to the ER, which exports them.
B) Golgi bodies manufacture proteins, which travel through the ER to be packaged by the ribosomes for export.
C) ER manufactures proteins, which are carried by the Golgi bodies to the ribosomes for export.
D) Ribosomes manufacture proteins, which travel through the ER and are packaged by the Golgi bodies for export.
E) ER manufactures proteins, which are carried by ribosomes to the Golgi bodies for export.

Question

Ribosomes manufacture proteins on the surface of the ER. These proteins then enter the ER, where they are modified and transported to the Golgi apparatus for further modification, sorting, and packaging for export out of the cell.
