Why do some cells of the human pancreas have up to 100 times the amount of endoplasmic reticulum as other parts of the body?

The pancreas secretes the hormones insulin, glucagon, and somatastatin, and the digestive enzymes, lipase, protease, and amylase. Proteins that will be secreted by the cell are produced by the ribosomes on the rough endoplasmic reticulum. Therefore, cells that secrete proteins have a large amount of rough endoplasmic reticulum.

Which organelles are responsible for the synthesis insulin?
Rough endoplasmic reticulum. The peptide bonds are actually formed by an structure called a ribosome. This is capable of making peptide bonds whether it is attached to the endoplasmic reticulum or free floating in the cytoplasm - but it isn't a organelle. However, the rough endoplasmic reticulum is a membrane-bound organelle which has a surface which is studded with ribosomes.
Transport of molecules within animal cells occurs in the what?
the Endoplasmic reticulum
What is the transport system in eukaryotic cells?
i choose the Golgi complex
Where is the smooth endoplasmic reticulum in animal cells?
Both the plant cell and animal cell include smooth endoplasmic reticulum's.
The circulation of cells are formed by?
Endoplasmic reticulum
Do plants have endoplasmic reticulum?
Yes they do, they can have a rough endoplasmic reticulum (RER) that has ribosomes on it. Or a soft endoplasmic reticulum (SER) with no ribosomes on it. Hope this helps!
Cells delivery system?
Endoplasmic Reticulum.

Is the endoplasmic reticulum in an 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)
What is the system of intricate passageways inside cells called?
Endoplasmic Reticulum.
Is endoplasmic reticulum found in animal cells?
Yes. Endoplasmic reticulum is found in all eukaryote cells.
Is the endoplasmic reticulum made up of cells?
No, the endoplasmic reticulum is a cell organelle.
What is a surface for chemical activity in a cell?
The surface for chemical activity in a cell is the endoplasmic reticulum. It is a membranous network found in the cytoplasm.
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.

Does an animal have a smooth endoplasmic reticulum?
Yes; Animal cells contain a smooth endoplasmic reticulum (as well as plant cells).
