What distinguishes the functions of smooth endoplasmic reticulum (SER) from peroxisomes? A) SER is primarily involved in lipid metabolism, while peroxisomes are responsible for protein synthesis. B) SER plays a role in detoxification processes, while peroxisomes are involved in the breakdown of fatty acids and hydrogen peroxide. C) SER stores calcium ions for muscle contraction, while peroxisomes regulate pH balance within the cell and breakdown of fatty acids. D) SER synthesizes carbohydrates for energy production, while peroxisomes store genetic material for cell replication
