C. Smooth Endoplasmic Reticulum.

The smooth endoplasmic reticululm is responsible for the synthesizing of lipids and carbohydrates because it contains Enzymes that are required to synthesize.  It can be confused with the rough endoplasmic reticulum which synthesizes proteins, not carbohydrates or lipids, but the smooth endoplasmic reticulum does NOT have ribosomes attached to it, where as, the rough endoplasmic reticulum does.

Lipids are a biochemical molecule that is insoluble in water while they can get dissolved in ether, alcohol.They are part of certain hormones, energy-storing molecules and also act as messengers.

Carbohydrates are compounds made up of carbon, hydrogen and oxygen atoms. They are the macro nutrients present in foods and beverages.

The correct option is:

Option C. Smooth endoplasmic reticulum.

  • The smooth endoplasmic reticulum is a cell organelle that is involved in the synthesis of steroids, carbs, and lipids.

  • It also performs the metabolism of substances like toxins or drugs which are derived externally.

Therefore, the smooth endoplasmic reticulum is a site of the synthesis of lipids and carbohydrates.
