The smooth endoplasmic reticulum (SER) does not have ribosomes attached to it and only makes lipids. The rough endoplasmic reticulum (RER), on the other hand, does have ribosomes attached to it. The RER makes lipids as well but also helps transport the proteins made by the ribosomes attached to it.

Membrane system involved intracellular transport of proteins and synthesis of membrane lipids?
The endoplasmic reticulum is involved in these intracellular activities. Specifically, the rough ER is involved in intercellular transport and smooth ER is involved in the sysnthesis of membrane lipids.
What are smooth and rough endoplasmic reticulum?
Smooth ER aren't covered in ribosomes, but rough ER are. ER are like transport tubes that go through the cell.
What does a smooth endoplasmic reticulum do?
transports proteins to be used in the cell membrane. No ..... that's not true. It depends on what type of cell it is that the Smooth ER is in.
What organelle stores and transports proteins and synthesizes phospholipids and cholesterol?
Smooth ER
Is it true that Many membrane proteins are made by the smooth endoplasmic reticulum?
No, it is the rough endoplasmic reticulum.
What is the job for smooth ER?
=is to transport other proteins threw the cell.....=
What is the function of a smooth ER?
depends on what type of cell you are wondering about. look up a specific cell type and then the function of the smooth ER in that cell
What Does smooth ER and rough ER do?
The ER is involved with the production, processing, transport, and storage of materials inside a cell. The difference between the Smooth and Rough one is that the rough one is associated with ribosomes whereas the smooth one lacks ribosomes. Hope this was helpfull :)
How can you tell the difference of smooth er and rough er?
Smooth ER, endoplasmic reticulum, does not have ribosomes, and Rough ER does.rough er is studded with ribosomes while smooth er is not.
A system of membranes that is found in a cells cytoplasm and that assists in the processing and transport of proteins and in the production of lipids is?
The Endoplasmic Reticulum (ER). The Rough ER is attached to the nuclear membrane while the Smooth ER is not.
How can you tell rough ER from the smooth ER?
Rough ER has numerous ribosomes on its surface. These are absent on smooth ER. Smooth ER studded with ribosomes. Rough ER transport of materials.
Membrane system involved intracellular transport of proteins and synthesis of membrane lipids?
The endoplasmic reticulum is involved in these intracellular activities. Specifically, the rough ER is involved in intercellular transport and smooth ER is involved in the sysnthesis of membrane lipids.
What are smooth and rough endoplasmic reticulum?
Smooth ER aren't covered in ribosomes, but rough ER are. ER are like transport tubes that go through the cell.
What is the function of the rough and smooth er?
The part of the ER covered in ribosomes is rough ER. Rough ER is usually found by the nucleus. Ribosomes on rough ER make many of the cell's proteins. The ER then delivers these proteins throughout the cell.. The ER that lacks ribosomes is smooth ER. The functions of smooth ER include making lipids and breaking down toxic materials that could damage the cell.
What does a smooth endoplasmic reticulum do?
transports proteins to be used in the cell membrane. No ..... that's not true. It depends on what type of cell it is that the Smooth ER is in.
Is the smooth er important and why?
it is the"road" by which proteins travel. smooth endoplasmic reticulum has no ribosomes, but is still important in carrying proteins
What serves as a production site for proteins and lipids and packages then into vesicles for transport elsewhere in the cell?
The endoplasmic reticulum. Specifically the "rough" ER is the site of protein synthesis and the "smooth" ER is the site of lipid synthesis.
