Rough endoplasmic reticulum is studded with protein-producing ribosomes giving it a "rough" appearance, hence its name. It works in concert with the Golgi complex to target new proteins to their proper destinations.
The rough endoplasmic reticulum is continuous with both the nuclear envelope and the smooth endoplasmic reticulum.
Smooth endoplasmic reticulum has functions in several metabolic processes; it contains enzymes, and it stores calcium ions in muscle cells. Lipid synthesis takes place in the smooth endoplasmic reticulum.
The smooth endoplasmic reticulum is continuous with the rough endoplasmic reticulum.
The difference between rough and smooth is the texture. Rough things have a bumpy, abrasive texture. Smooth things have are not rough.
Rough ER has Ribosomes and Smooth ER does not.
Rough ER has Ribosomes and Smooth ER does not.
Rough ER is studded with ribosomes while smoth ER is not.
Rough ER is studded with ribosomes while smoth ER is not.
rough- ribosomes attached smooth- no ribosomes
The main difference between rough ER and smooth ER is the presence of ribosomes. Rough ER has ribosomes attached to its surface, which gives it a rough appearance, while smooth ER lacks ribosomes. Rough ER is involved in protein synthesis and processing, while smooth ER is involved in lipid synthesis and detoxification processes.

The difference between ruff ER and smooth ER is ruff ER contains attached ribosomes giving it the rough appearance, where as smooth ER does not.
The difference between ruff ER and smooth ER is ruff ER contains attached ribosomes giving it the rough appearance, where as smooth ER does not.
The difference between ruff ER and smooth ER is ruff ER contains attached ribosomes giving it the rough appearance, where as smooth ER does not.
Smooth endoplasmic reticulum (ER) lacks ribosomes on its surface and is involved in lipid synthesis and detoxification of drugs. Rough ER, on the other hand, has ribosomes on its surface, involved in protein synthesis and processing.
