Endoplasmic reticulum that makes cholesterol and helps detoxify poisons?
smooth
Morphological differences between rough endoplasmic reticulum and smooth endoplasmic reticulum?
Smooth endoplasmic reticulum makes lipids and breaks down toxic material. Rough endoplasmic reticulum makes protein.
What makes endoplasmic reticulum rough?
the ribosomes that are attached to it and it makes it a rough endoplasmic reticulum
What makes the surface look bumpy on the rough endoplasmic reticulum?
Presence of ribosomes on the membrane of endoplasmic reticulum makes the surface look bumpy.
What makes lipids?
The Smooth Endoplasmic Reticulum.
What kind of endoplasmic reticulum makes lipids and breaks down harmful materials?
Smooth endoplasmic reticulum makes lipids and steroid hormones.
Where does cholesterol breakdown in a cell take place?
Primarily in the mitochondria, but also in the endoplasmic reticulum.
What makes the rough endoplasmic reticulum rough?
On the rough endoplasmic reticulum, it is rough due to the ribosomes that are on it. The Ribosomes create protein and send them into the endoplasmic reticulum. Ribosomes are made inside the nucleolus.
What structure makes the rough endoplasmic reticulum different from the smooth endoplasmic reticulum?
The basic difference between the rough endoplasmic reticulum and the smooth endoplasmic reticulum is the rough ER has ribosomes latched on to it. This is what makes it "rough" and since the smooth ER does not have these organelles on it, it is smooth.The RER and the SER also differ in function. The rough ER is the cell's "membrane factory." Proteins and phospholipids that form part of all cellular membranes are manufactured in the rough ER. The smooth ER's main functions are lipid metabolism and synthesis of cholesterol.
What Transports proteins in cell?
Rough Endoplasmic Reticulum for plant cells ONLY, or the golgi apperatus for animal cells scence animal cells do NOT have a Rough Endoplasmic Reticulum only a Endoplasmic Reticulum that makes the protiens.
What is inside of endoplasmic reticulum?
There is Micro filament, Centriole, Nucleus, Ribosomes, Lysosome, Mitochondrion, Golgi Apparatus & Smooth Endoplasmic Reticulum (S.E.R) Rough Endoplasmic Reticulum (R.E.R) Muhammad Asim Malik From Pakistan
What is a membrane covered compartment that makes lipids and other materials for use inside and outside the cell?
EndoPlasmic Reticulum
