The protein is prepared from the plasma cells. The antibodies is made on the ribosomes by the translation process. From the ribosomes, it will move to the endoplasmic reticulum for the glycosylation and protein folding. Then it moves to the golgi for the further protein packaging and processing. With the help of the vesicles it moves to its destination part in the cell.

Thus, the correct answer is option (d).
