Endoplasmic reticulum is a network of tubules, vesicles and sacs that are interconnected. They may serve specialized functions in the cell including protein synthesis, sequestration of calcium, production of steroids, storage and production of glycogen, and insertion of membrane proteins.

What transport materials throughout cytoplasm?
Endoplasmic Reticulum, or Reticulum for short.
System of membranes that helps move substances through a cell?
The endoplasmic reticulum. Those with ribosomes are called "rough" without are called smooth.
What consists of a network of intracellular membranes with attached ribosomes?
Rough endoplasmatic reticulumRough endoplasmic reticulum
What is a surface for chemical activity in a cell?
The surface for chemical activity in a cell is the endoplasmic reticulum. It is a membranous network found in the cytoplasm.

Is the endoplasmic reticulum in an animal cell?
the endoplasmic reticulum is in both plant and animal cells. there is the smooth endoplasmic reticulum (SER) and then there is the rough endoplasmic reticulum (RER)
Is the endoplasmic reticulum connected to the smooth endoplasmic reticulum?
No because if they been connected then it be smooth endoplasmic reticulum or the rough endoplasmic reticulum and it will be one of the both :p
