Unlike the rough ER, the smooth ER is not studded with ribosomes. This gives it a smooth appearance.
What else can I help you with?
Endoplasmic reticulum with ribosomes attached to it is called?
Rough endoplasmic reticulum.
The portion of the endoplasmic reticulum that lacks attached ribosomes?
The portion of the endoplasmic reticulum that lacks attached ribosomes is called smooth endoplasmic reticulum (SER). It is involved in lipid metabolism, detoxification of drugs and toxins, and calcium storage and release in muscle cells.
A series of membrane-enclosed channels studded with ribosomes is called the?
rough endoplasmic reticulum
What is the nickname for a endoplasmic reticulum in a cell?
The ER. It depends on if you are referring to the smooth endoplasmic reticulum (smooth ER) or the rough endoplasmic reticulum (rough ER).
Are ribosomes always found in the endoplasmic reticulum?
No, ribosomes are not always found in the endoplasmic reticulum. Ribosomes can be free-floating in the cytoplasm or attached to the endoplasmic reticulum. Ribosomes attached to the endoplasmic reticulum are called rough endoplasmic reticulum, while ribosomes in the cytoplasm are called free ribosomes.
What is the system of intricate passageways inside cells called the reticulum?
The system of intricate passageways inside cells is called the endoplasmic reticulum. It plays a crucial role in protein synthesis, lipid metabolism, and detoxification within the cell. The endoplasmic reticulum can be further divided into rough endoplasmic reticulum (with ribosomes attached) and smooth endoplasmic reticulum (without ribosomes).
What is an extensive system of internal membranes that move proteins and other other substances through the cell?
endoplasmic reticulum
What is a system of folded membrane in which protein lipids and other material are made?
It is the Endoplasmic Reticulum (ER)
What is attached to surfaces of rough endoplasmic reticulum?
Many ribosomes are attached to the surface of the rough endoplasmic reticulum. That is why it is called " rough. "
What organelle has ribosomes attached to it's surface?
Ribosomes can be attached to endoplasmic reticulum, and when ribosomes are attached, it is called rough endoplasmic reticulum.
What organelle acts as the highway to transport proteins?
endoplasmic reticulum
The folded system of membranes that forms a network of interconnected compartment inside the cell is called?
Endoplasmic reticulum.
