Vedclass · Answer

(C) Microsomes are small,vesicle-like artifacts derived from the endoplasmic reticulum $(ER)$ and other membrane systems of the cell.They are obtained by the process of cell fractionation.In this process,cells are first disrupted or broken down using ultrasonic sound waves (sonication) or mechanical homogenization.Following this,the cell homogenate is subjected to differential centrifugation to isolate the various cell organelles,including the microsomes.
