The smooth ER is a system of internal membrane inside the cell which move proteins and other substance through the cell (works as a highway system). The rough ER is basically smooth ER with ribosomes stuck to it. The ER is made of lipid bi-layer, just like the cell membrane.
The smooth er does not have attached ribosomes. Certain organs contain an abundance of smooth er and its functions depends on the organ. in some organs, the smooth er is associated with the production of lipids.
the function of SMOOTH ENDOPLASMIC RETICULUM (SER) is: synthesizes lipids and carbohydrates
Fat Biosynthesis
Steroid and Lipid synthesis
Smooth endoplasmic reticulum is specialized to synthesize lipids and steroids. It is abundant in liver and the testicular cells (example- Leydig cells) synthesizing steroid hormones.
It helps get the proteins to the Golgi apparatus, and more importantly it is involved in the break toxic substances and the control of the intake of calcium, and synthesis steroids.
They produce lipids specially steroids.Engage in detoxification in liver.Also build up peroxisomes and glyoxisomes.
Detoxification
The endoplasmic reticulum is a packaging system. There is a rough and a smooth endoplasmic reticulum. The rough endoplasmic reticulum is important in the synthesis and packaging of proteins. The smooth endoplasmic reticulum is important in the creation and storage of steroids.
endoplasmic reticulum is divided into two parts that are smooth endoplasmic reticulum and rough endoplasmic reticulum.It is the network of membranes which provide skeletal framework to the cell.
Smooth endoplasmic reticulum is considered "smooth" because it does not contain ribosomes that attach to its walls. "Rough" endoplasmic reticulum, on the other hand, is classified as all endoplasmic reticulum walls where ribosomes are attached. Ribosomes are created inside the nucleus and often move through the endoplasmic reticulum in the process of carrying out their function - making proteins.
Its called smooth Endoplasmic reticulum a.k.a Smooth ER
The smooth ER is similiar.

In the sarcoplasmic reticulum (smooth er).
Endoplasmic reticulum is like a transport and manufacturing pipeline, for many biochemical compounds. Endoplasmic reticulum function is dependent on its type. There are three types of endoplasmic reticulum, which are:Rough Endoplasmic Reticulum (RER)Smooth Endoplasmic Reticulum (SER)Sarcoplasmic Reticulum (SR)

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 rough endoplasmic reticulum is covered in ribosomes and helps produce most of the proteins. Smooth endoplasmic reticulum does not have these ribosomes, and is almost solely for producing lipids.

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.
