The correct Answer is:
### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding R.E.R**: R.E.R stands for Rough Endoplasmic Reticulum. It is a type of endoplasmic reticulum that is studded with ribosomes on its cytoplasmic surface. 2. **Identifying the Characteristics of R.E.R**: The presence of ribosomes gives the rough endoplasmic reticulum its "rough" appearance. This structure is crucial for protein synthesis and processing. 3. **Exploring the Staining Properties**: The question asks whether the R.E.R is neutrophilic, acidophilic, or basophilic. To answer this, we need to understand what these terms mean: - **Neutrophilic**: This term typically refers to cells or structures that do not have a strong affinity for either acidic or basic dyes. - **Acidophilic**: This refers to structures that have an affinity for acidic dyes, meaning they will stain well with acidic solutions. - **Basophilic**: This refers to structures that have an affinity for basic dyes, meaning they will stain well with basic solutions. 4. **Determining the Correct Affinity**: The rough endoplasmic reticulum is known to be basophilic. This is because it contains a high concentration of ribosomes, which are rich in RNA. RNA has a strong affinity for basic dyes, leading to the conclusion that R.E.R is basophilic. 5. **Final Conclusion**: Therefore, the answer to the question is that R.E.R (Rough Endoplasmic Reticulum) is **basophilic**.
