The endoplasmic reticulum is typically divided into two sections based upon morphology. The rough endoplasmic reticulum (rough ER or RER) has numerous ribosomes associated with it and is a main site of amino acid chain production(the first step of protein synthesis) in the cell. The smooth endoplasmic reticulum (smooth ER or SER) functions to fold the amino acid chains from the RER into the proper shape for a protein and to "finish" them with non-amino acid components such as ions.
the endoplasmic reticulum is found in the animal cell
There are two types of endoplasmic reticulum in an animal cell. The rough endoplasmic reticulum is responsible for making proteins. The smooth endoplasmic reticulum is responsible for synthesizing steroids, phospholipids, and lipids.
endoplasmic reticulum is present both in plant cell and animal cell
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 function of smooth Endoplasmic reticulum in an animal cell is to produce and metabolize fats in the cell. The functions may differ slightly depending on the type of cell.
The rough endoplasmic reticulum in animal cells is involved in protein synthesis. It has ribosomes attached to its surface which help in the translation of mRNA into proteins. These proteins are then modified and transported to other parts of the cell.
Both the plant cell and animal cell include smooth endoplasmic reticulum's.
Both the plant cell and animal cell include smooth endoplasmic reticulum's.
The endoplasmic reticulum floats around the cell in the cytoplasm.

The rough endoplasmic reticulum play a role in the synthesis and packaging of proteins, which get used in and out of the cell.
