It is abundant in exocrine pancreatic cells and antibodies secreting plasma cells. It contains flattened sacs called cisternae. Ribosomes are attached to outer surface of its membrane. It is specialized to synthesize proteins.

What organelles that are sometimes referred to as rough or smooth depending on the structure?
Endoplasmic Reticula (ER) - The three varieties are called rough endoplasmic reticulum, smooth endoplasmic reticulum and sarcoplasmic reticulum.
What is the cell structure that synthesizes glycoproteins and phospholipids?
Smooth Endoplasmic Reticulum
The portion of the endoplasmic reticulum that lacks attached ribosomes?
Its called smooth Endoplasmic reticulum a.k.a Smooth ER
What is the the function of the reticulum?
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.
What cell structure detoxifies alcohol?
smooth endoplasmic reticulum
Site of steroid and fatty acid synthesis in a cellular structure?
Smooth Endoplasmic reticulum
What organelles that are sometimes referred to as rough or smooth depending on the structure?
Endoplasmic Reticula (ER) - The three varieties are called rough endoplasmic reticulum, smooth endoplasmic reticulum and sarcoplasmic reticulum.
Name the two kinds of endoplasmic reticulum?
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.
Where are the calcium ions stored in a muscle fiber?
In the sarcoplasmic reticulum (smooth er).
Which organelle is primarily involved in the synthesis of oils?
smooth endoplasmic reticulum
What is the cell structure that synthesizes glycoproteins and phospholipids?
Smooth Endoplasmic Reticulum
Is the endoplasmic reticulum connected to the smooth endoplasmic reticulum?
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 portion of the endoplasmic reticulum that lacks attached ribosomes?
Its called smooth Endoplasmic reticulum a.k.a Smooth ER
Where lipids are synthesized in eukaryotes?
The smooth endoplasmic reticulum.
What is another word for endoplasmic reticulum?
smooth endoplasmic reticulum
What is the size of the smooth endoplasmic reticulum?
there is really no definite size of a smooth endoplasmic reticulum, they range in size. :)
What is the the function of the reticulum?
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.
