The endoplasmic reticulum, i.e., sarcoplasmic reticulum of the skeletal muscle fibres is:
1. an example of RER and secretes a large number of proteins.
2. the store house of calcium ions.
3. not bound by a membrane.
4. organised into light and dark bands giving the muscle fibres a striated appearance.
