Does the endoplasmic reticulum have oragnells?

The endoplasmic reticulum does not possess organelles, but it has got ribosomes attached to it , which helps in protein synthesis.


Where is the rough endoplasmic reticulum?

In eukaryotes, it surrounds the nucleus. Prokaryotes don't have them.


Do viruses have an endoplasmic reticulum?

No, viruses do not have their own endoplasmic reticulum. They rely on host cells to carry out their replication and do not possess the cellular machinery needed to produce their own endoplasmic reticulum.


Why prokaryotes cannot perform post translational process?

No endoplasmic reticulum and no Golgi apparatus.


Are smooth endoplasmic reticulum prokaryotes or eukaryotes or both?

Smooth endoplasmic reticulum is a eukaryotic organelle found in eukaryotic cells, which includes all plant and animal cells. Prokaryotic cells, such as bacteria, lack membrane-bound organelles like the endoplasmic reticulum.


Is endoplasmic reticulum found in prokaryote or eukaryote?

Prokaryotic cells lack a nucleus and membrane bound organelles. Therefore only Eukaryotic cells possess the endoplasmic reticulum.


Which cell parts are found only in prokaryotes?

Prokaryotes do not have membrane-bound organelles found in eukaryotic cells, such as a nucleus, mitochondria, endoplasmic reticulum, or Golgi apparatus. Additionally, prokaryotes lack membrane-bound compartments like the endomembrane system seen in eukaryotic cells.


Why don't prokaryotes have endoplasmic reticulum?

they don't have organelles, since the cytoplasm does the metabolic work, and technically we will only find the circular DNA in the nucleoid region and some ribosomes (which are NOT organelles, 'cause an organelle is a cellular structure that is protected by a membrane, like mitochondria, chloroplasts) in a prokaryotic cytoplasm.


Eukaryotes and prokaryotes contain endoplasmic reticulum?

Eukaryotic cells have two types of endoplasmic reticulum: Smooth ER (SER); Rough ER (RER).


What part of the cell can be found in the cytosol and on the endoplasmic reticulum?

Ribosomes can be found as free ribosomes in the cytosol and also on the rough endoplasmic reticulum. Both are involved in protein synthesis. In cells that are prokaryotes, like bacteria, they are only found free.


Is smooth endoplasmic reticulum prokaryotic or eukaryotic?

is the endoplasmic reticulum an Eukaryotic cell?


Do prokaryotes have rough er?

No, they do not. Prokaryotic cells have no membrane-bound organelles such as rough endoplasmic reticulum. The 70s ribosomes found in prokaryotic cells are therefore free in the cytoplasm as opposed to attached to the rough endoplasmic reticulum.
