Best Answer

Rough Endoplasmic Reticulum
There are two types of Endoplasmic Reticulum:

1) Rough ER which has Ribosomes attached to it on the sides and walls. Giving it a "rough" look

2)Smooth ER which has no ribosomes. Giving it a "smooth" look

They have two different functions. A ribosome located by itself or in a small group in the cytosol synthesizes soluble cytoplasm proteins and most extrinsic membrane proteins.

Ribosomes in the rough endoplasmic reticulum produce proteins that will end up in the Golgi for export by vesicles. These include the digestive enzymes produced in the stomach and the protein hormones like insulin produced in the pancreas.

The answer is that endoplasmic reticulum are important because they help plants when breathing oxygen in the day. Also, plants get the energy they need.
