Answer:

The right answer to this question is option B. Smooth endoplasmic reticulum

Explanation:

Organelles in a cell have very specialized functions, and they can be more present in a cell than in others. By that, we can get to the conclusion that cells are not equal to one another. They work in a way depending on where they are and what they need to do at that location.

Livers work on a way that they do a very specific function, they detoxify the body, mainly of alcohol. For that, the cells in a liver need to have an organelle called smooth endoplasmic reticulum, they are going to detoxify the body of the alcohol that is being consumed by the human, and in alcoholics, they're more present due to the quantity of alcohol consumed daily.
