The question is incomplete and the correct question is

Identify the incorrect match in the following options-

Answer:

Smooth endoplasmic reticulum - storage of water

Step-by-step explanation:

The endoplasmic reticulum is the membrane-enclosed tubular sac-like structure which can cover up to 80% of the cytosol depending on the function.

The endoplasmic reticulum can be rough due to the attachment of the ribosomes known as rough endoplasmic reticulum or they can be smooth when the surface does not have the ribosomes.

The smooth endoplasmic reticulum does not function in protein synthesis nor it does store water but it helps in the synthesis of lipid molecules like steroids and can detoxify the harmful substances. The function of storage of water is performed by the vacuoles.

Thus, the selected option is the correct answer.
