Scientists have found that polypeptides that are normally synthesized in the endoplasmic reticulum are about 20 amino acids longer when they are synthesized by ribosomes not attached to the endoplasmic reticulum

What is a possible explanation for the greater length of these polypeptides? A) Ribosomes attached to the endoplasmic reticulum require fewer amino acids to function. B) The 20 amino acids serve as a signal (peptide) sequence that directs the forming polypeptides to the endoplasmic reticulum, where they are cleaved off during processing. C) The 20-amino-acid sequence helps the endoplasmic reticulum package these proteins for shipping to the Golgi. D) The protein has a different function in the cytosol than in the endoplasmic reticulum.
