Cells in the pancreas are responsible for producing insulin, a protein excreted from the cell and used to help regulate blood sugar levels. Because the protein will be released out of the cell in which it is made, which of the cell's ribosomes are most likely involved in its production?

Answer:

The ribosomes of the endoplasmic reticulum.

Step-by-step explanation:

The endomembrane system in eukaryotic organism divides the cell organelles into structural and functional compartment. The endomembrane system is important in the process of protein processing and secretion.

The production of insulin in the cells follows the proper pathway of the protein secretion. The protein insulin has been released out of the cell, the endoplasmic reticulum ribosomes are involved in its production.
