Which of the statement is not true for compounds like glycoprotein and glycolipids?
Correct answer: D. Both are produced and screted by endoplasmic reticulum
- A. They are conjugated molecules of carbohydrates
- B. Both have role in the extracellular matrix of animals and bacterial cell wall
- C. They are components of biological membranes.
- D. Both are produced and screted by endoplasmic reticulum
Explanation
Addition of sugars to protiens and lipids occurs in the golgi body, not in the endoplasmic reticulum.

About Conjugated Molecules
Conjugated molecules contain a non-protein component attached to a protein portion, giving the molecule properties that a simple protein lacks. The content includes glycoproteins, lipoproteins, phosphoproteins, nucleoproteins, chromoproteins and metalloproteins, with attention to their prosthetic groups and roles in transport, protection, catalysis and cellular structure.
