False. They carry out protein synthesis.
The Endoplasmic Reticulum (E.R.) is responsible for lipid synthesis however ribosomes are responsible for protein synthesis. Ribosomes are also present in endoplasmic reticulum - rough E.R. Smooth E.R. contains no ribosomes.
The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is the organelle associated with protein and lipid synthesis in cells. There are two types of ER - rough ER with ribosomes on its surface involved in protein synthesis, and smooth ER involved in lipid synthesis and detoxification.
Ribosomes.
rough endoplasmic reticulum[RER] has ribosomes attached to it giving a rough appearance thereby deriving its name. smooth endoplasmic reticulum[SER] is devoid of ribosomes. RER- involved in protein synthesis as ribosomes are concerned with protein synthesis. SER-concerned with lipid synthesis in intestinal cells& with steroid formation in adrenals
The endoplasmic reticulum is the cell organelle responsible for membrane and lipid synthesis as well as detoxification. The smooth endoplasmic reticulum, in particular, plays a role in these functions due to its lack of ribosomes and its specialization in lipid metabolism and detoxification processes.

if ribosomes are found attached to ER (endoplasmic reticulum) it is called rough ER and it is responsible for protein synthesis. but, if no ribosomes are attached to ER it is called smooth ER and is mainly responsible for lipid synthesis.

The smooth endoplasmic reticulum, in particular, plays a role in these functions due to its lack of ribosomes and its specialization in lipid metabolism and detoxification processes.
The endoplasmic reticulum is responsible for the synthesis of lipids in a cell. Both the smooth endoplasmic reticulum, which lacks ribosomes, and the rough endoplasmic reticulum, which has ribosomes, play roles in lipid synthesis. Lipids are important cellular components involved in energy storage, membrane structure, and signaling.
The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is involved in protein synthesis, processing, and transport within the cell. It also helps in lipid synthesis and detoxification of harmful substances. There are two types of ER - rough ER, which has ribosomes attached and is involved in protein synthesis, and smooth ER, which is involved in lipid metabolism.
Rough ER (endoplasmic reticulum) manufactures membranes and secretory proteins. In pancreatic cells, the rough ER produces insulin. (has ribosomes attached to it) Smooth ER is responsible carbohydrate and lipid synthesis. It serves as a transitional area for vesicles that transport ER products to various destinations. In liver cells the smooth ER produces enzymes that help to detoxify certain compounds. (has no ribosomes) Both help create Ribosomes
The endoplasmic reticulum makes membranes and processes proteins in a cell. There are two types: rough endoplasmic reticulum (with ribosomes attached for protein synthesis) and smooth endoplasmic reticulum (involved in lipid synthesis and detoxification).
Tiny structures found in the cytoplasm that carry out various functions are called organelles. These organelles include structures like mitochondria, ribosomes, and the endoplasmic reticulum, each responsible for specific cellular tasks such as energy production, protein synthesis, and lipid metabolism.
No they do not synthesize lipids.They invoive in protein synthesis.
