The right answer is synthesize large quantities of lipids.

It should be known that there are two types of endoplasmic reticulum: rough (contains ribosomes) and smooth (does not contain ribosomes).

The rough endoplasmic reticulum harvests in its light the proteins synthesized by the ribosomes attached to its surface. The proteins then move inside the light to be eventually transported to the Golgi apparatus, where they will complete their maturation and be distributed to the different compartments of the cell.

The smooth endoplasmic reticulum carries, associated with its membrane, the enzymes necessary for the synthesis of lipids and lipoproteins (molecules associating a protein part and a lipid part). Very reduced in the majority of cells, the smooth endoplasmic reticulum is very extensive in cells specialized in the synthesis of lipids (adipocytes) or in that of lipoproteins (hepatocytes for example).

How does sunlight affect aquatic life in the Blue Cypress Lake?
wlad13 [49]

Answer:

Blue Cypress Lake, originally called Lake Wilmington, is a lake in Indian River County of the Treasure Coast in Florida. It is the largest lake in the Treasure Coast and Indian River County. It is the headwaters lake of the St. Johns River. The sources of water are several creeks from the south (Mudfish Slough, Padget Branch, Holman Canal, and Fisher Creek), two from the west (Trim Creek, Blue Cypress Creek), and Moonshine Bay from the North that flow into the lake. All the water flows out of the lake to the northwest into M Canal and Zigzag Canal. The lake is over 6,500 acres (26 km²) in size, 21 mi (34 km) in circumference, and has an average depth of 8 feet (2 m). The lake is 2,100 acres (8.7 km²) larger than Lake Washington, 27 mi (43 km) north of this lake. The lake's name comes from the blue appearance of the cypress trees as the morning sun's rays reflect off the water. A fishing camp called Blue Cypress Lakeside Cabins is 4 mi (6 km) off State Road 60. The Blue Cypress Village (about 70 units) is south of the small boat canal from the fish camp.
