Steroids are not carbohydrates.
Smooth endoplasmic reticulum seems to be associated with the production of what substances?
Synthesis of carbohydrates and lipids.
Are steroids proteins carbohydrates or lipids?
Steroids are lipids. Lipids are organic soluble, instead of water soluble. Their basic structure is that of the steroid ring: four linked rings of carbon.
How does the basic structure of a steriod differ from other macromolecules such as carbohydrates?
a steroids has one ring with five carbons and three rings with six carbons and for carbohydrates: Monosaccharide has only one and a disaccharide has two etc..

Rough endoplasmic reticulum is the area in a cell where what is synthesized?
Rough endoplasmic reticula synthesize proteins, while smooth endoplasmic reticula synthesize lipids and steroids, metabolize carbohydrates and steroids, and regulate calcium concentration
Does the endoplasmic reticulum dispose waste in a cell?
no the endoplasmic recticulum synthesizes proteins, lipids and steroids, metabolizes carbohydrates and steroids (but not lipids), and regulates calcium concentration, drug metabolism, and attachment of receptors on cell membrane proteins. The lysosome disposes of the waste inside of a cell.
What does the smooth ER release?
Endoplasmic reticulum devoid of ribosomes are smooth er.
What is mean by endoplasmicrectuculum?
From Wikipedia:The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is a eukaryote organelle that forms an interconnected network of tubules, vesicles and cisterna withing cells.Rough endoplasmic reticula synthsize protiens, while smooth endoplasmic reticla synthesize lipids (fats) and steroids, metabolize carbohydrates and steroids, and regulate calcium concentration......
What is the scientific name of the drug steroids?

What are oral steroids?

Smooth ER function?
Smooth endoplasmic reticulum (ER) primarily functions in lipid metabolism and detoxification of drugs and other harmful substances. It is also involved in the synthesis of steroid hormones.
