Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Cells specialized for protein secretion require a large amount of endoplasmic reticulum (ER) to synthesize and process these proteins. The ER is responsible for protein synthesis, folding, and modification in eukaryotic cells. Therefore, cells specialized for protein secretion are likely to have an enlarged endoplasmic reticulum. Choices A, B, and C do not relate to protein secretion.
