The right answer is A. producer.

Phytoplankton are all cyanobacteria and microalgae (microscopic plants) present in surface waters and drifting with the currents. Unknown because invisible to the naked eye, phytoplankton is the lung of our planet. Thanks to photosynthesis, it produces more than half of the Earth's oxygen and consumes half of the carbon dioxide. Phytoplankton is essential for marine life because it is also at the base of the ocean food chain.

All proteins are synthesized by ribosomes in the cell. some ribosomes float freely in the cytosol, while others are bound to the
Dennis_Churaev [7]
Ost proteins that function in the cytosol (such as actin) or in the nucleus (such as DNA polymerase) are synthesized by free ribosomes. Proteins that function within the endomembrane system (such as lysosomal enzymes) or those that are destined for secretion from the cell (such as insulin) are synthesized by bound ribosomes.
<span>As a protein destined for the endomembrane system is being synthesized by a ribosome, the first amino acids in the growing polypeptide chain act as a signal sequence. That signal sequence ensures that the ribosome binds to the outer membrane of the ER and that the protein enters the ER lumen.</span>
