Answer 1

The correct statement is:

Rough ER contains ribosomes, and smooth ER transports materials other than proteins.

Rough endoplasmic reticulum (Rough ER) is studded with ribosomes, which are the sites of protein synthesis, while smooth endoplasmic reticulum (Smooth ER) is involved in the synthesis of lipids and the transport of various materials, including those that are not proteins.
