That would be the ribosomes, but they are also floating free in the cytosol forming their part in the cytoplasmic material.

Which organelle is the site of protein synthesis and is a text to the outside surface of the Indo plasmic reticulum?

mitochondria


Is the rough Endoplasmic Reticulum an organelle?

Endoplasmic reticulum synthesizes (or helps in processing) proteins and lipids for the cell's organelles. In rough ER the proteins are transferred to the Golgi apparatus to be transported outside of the cell.


Which organelle is a network of membranes involved in the production of proteins that will become secreted of part of the plasma membrane?

The rough endoplasmic reticulum is a network of membranes involved in the production of proteins. Protein synthesis occurs in the ribosomes, which are attached to the outside of the rough ER, giving it a 'rough' appearance.


Can you explain the role of the endoplasmic reticulum in protein synthesis?

The endoplasmic reticulum is a cell organelle that plays a crucial role in protein synthesis. It is responsible for folding and modifying newly synthesized proteins before they are transported to their final destinations within or outside the cell. The endoplasmic reticulum also helps in quality control by ensuring that only properly folded proteins are released from the organelle.


What is the ER with ribosomes attached to its surface?

The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) with ribosomes attached to its surface is called rough endoplasmic reticulum (RER). Ribosomes on the RER are responsible for protein synthesis, which is then transported throughout the cell or secreted outside the cell.


What organelle transports materials outside the cell?

Endoplasmic reticulum


Do rough endoplasmic reticulum secrete protein?

Yes, the rough endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is involved in the synthesis and processing of proteins. It has ribosomes attached to its surface that help in protein synthesis. Proteins made in the rough ER are then modified, folded, and transported to other parts of the cell or outside the cell.


What is the function of rough er in a animal cell?

The rough endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is involved in protein synthesis and transport within the cell. It has ribosomes attached to its surface, which help in the synthesis of proteins that are then transported to other parts of the cell or secreted outside the cell.


Which organelle is a network of membranes connected to the outside of the nuclear envelope?

its a rough endoplasmic reticulum.


What is a series of highly folded membranes suspended in the cytoplasm with nothing attached to its outside?

That would be the endoplasmic reticulum (ER), specifically the smooth endoplasmic reticulum. It lacks ribosomes on its surface, unlike the rough endoplasmic reticulum. The smooth ER is involved in lipid synthesis, metabolism, and detoxification processes.


What are the grain like bodies that are attached to the outside of the endoplasmic reticulum?

Ribosomes


Function of the rough endoplasmic reticulum?

The rough endoplasmic reticulum is involved in protein synthesis and modification. It has ribosomes attached to its surface that facilitate the synthesis of proteins that are then processed and packaged for transportation within the cell or secretion outside of the cell.
