it packages proteins and sends them throughout the cell. it also organizes the cell.
Wrong the endoplasmic reticulum is responsible for protein synthesis-( specifically the rough er). The smooth er is responsible for lipid synthesis, storage of calcium CA2+ and detoxification. The er does very little in protein packaging. Once proteins leave the er, they enter the golgi apperatus thru the cis face (recieving) they are packaged and then leave thru the trans face (shipping). The Golgi apparatus is the UPS of the cell.
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
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)
the endoplasmic reticulum is transparent
the Endoplasmic reticulum
The ribosomes, golgi apparatus, plasma membrane, mitochondrion, cytoskeleton, peroxisome, the rough endoplasmic reticulum, the smooth endoplasmic reticulum, and the nucleus.
The plural form of endoplasmic reticulum is endoplasmic reticula.
Endoplasmic Reticulum.
smooth endoplasmic reticulum
They can be attached to Rough ER(Endoplasmic Reticulum)
Type your answer here... Rough endoplasmic reticulum
Two types of Endoplasmic Reticuli exists, the rough endoplasmic reticulum and the smooth endoplasmic reticulum. The rough endoplasmic reticulum is involved in the synthesis of proteins -{from through}- VIA the ribosomes embedded within its structure. The smooth endoplasmic reticulum is involved in the synthesis of lipids and steroids.
