-A. Smooth ER, B. Rough ER, C. Golgi Apparatus, D. Lysosomes
1. Protein synthesis
2. Cisternal maturation
3. Lipid synthesis
4. Calcium ion storage
5. protein modification and sorting
6. poison detoxification
7. macromolecule digestion
8. autophagy

Answer 1

Smooth ER: lipid synthesis, calcium iron storage, poison detoxification

Rough ER: protein synthesis

Golgi Apparatus: protein modification and storage, cisternal maturation

Lysosomes: autophagy

Macromolecule: macromolecule digestion

Hope that helps!!!
