vlabodo [156]

Answer:

The answer is A

Explanation:

There are certain types of proteins that need to be sinthesized in the rough ERC in order to reach its final destination. These proteins are:

- Proteins that need to be exported from the cell.

- Proteins that need to be docked to either endomembranes or the plasma membrane.

- Hydrolytic lysosomal enzimes.

- Proteins that have a function in the lumen of certain organelles such as the endoplasmic reticulum, golgi or the nuclear envelope.

Hemoglobin doesn't fit in any of these cateogories, given that it is a cytoplasmic protein. Therefore, its synthesis begins and ends in the cytoplasm, where the protein performs its function.
