The RER, which is rough endoplasmic reticulum, has ribosomes on its surface. The SER, called smooth endoplasmic reticulum does not have ribosomes on its surface.

What is the difference in function between free ribosomes and attached ribosomes?

Free ribosomes are found in the cytosol, which is the fluid portion of the cytoplasm, and are responsible for manufacturing proteins that will function as http://www.answers.com/topic/soluble proteins within the cytoplasm or form structural elements, including the cytoskeleton, that are found within the cytosol.


Which organelle serves as the packaging and distribution center of a eukaryotic cell?

The Golgi Apparatus is a highly-folded membrane structure on the terminal portion of the endoplasmic reticulum. The Golgi is the final packaging and distribution station prior to release into the cytoplasm or loading into vesicles for extracellular transport.


What is a small spherical body in the nucleus of a cell consisting of protein and RNA?

There are many organelles in the cytoplasm of a cell. It also depends on if it is a plant cell or an animal cell. Plant cells have chloroplasts where animal cells do not. Each has golgi bodies (apparatus), ribsomes, ER, vacuoles, nucleus, mitochondria.


What is the non-protein portion required by some enzymes for proper function?

Some enzymes do indeed have non-protein components. One really good example of this is the ribosome. Ribosomes are the enzymes responsible for translating mRNA into protein. Ribosomes are made up of both protein components and rRNA components. rRNA stands for ribosomal RNA.


How are the extremities attached to the axial portion of the body?

The upper limbs are attached to the axial skeleton by the pectoral girdle (which consists of the scapula and clavicle)

Outer portion of nuclear membrane shown to be continuous with what structure?

The nuclear membrane is continuous with the Rough Endoplasmic Reticulum.


Why is the endoplasmic reticulum important in the production of insulin?

Endoplasmic reticulum (ER) or more specific rough endoplasmic reticulum is important due to the presence of ribosomes on the surface of ER. The protein synthesis takes place in the ribosomes but once its "completed" it moves within the interior of the ER. Now ER is important because although the protein synthesis is done still some modifications is required to activate it. A portion of modification is done inside the ER where proteins ( eg. Insulin) are a step closer for activation. hope this helps :)

In what cells ribosomes are in?

Ribosomes are found on the surface of rough endoplasmic reticulum (ER). The presence of ribosomes is also the reason that portion of the ER is called 'rough'. They are also found in the cytoplasm. Protein made from the ribosomes from the cytoplasm remain in the cell and protein made from the ribosomes on the ER are exported from the cell. Ribosomes can be found in all cells because without them and the protein they make, the cell will die.


Is a zygomatics a organelles?

Zygomatics are not organelles but bones. The Zygomatics are the cheek bones. They make up the portion of our face right below our eye and above our teeth. Organelles are found in cells and are quite small in comparison to bones. Some of the most well-known organelles are the Mitochondria, Ribosomes, and Endoplasmic Reticulum. Hope this helps :)
