They're seperate organelles, but they are connected by a membrane separating the two.
The Rough Endoplasmic Reticulum is connected to the nuclear membrane and is continuous with the Smooth Endoplasmic Reticulum within the cell. Its distinctive rough appearance is due to the presence of ribosomes on its surface, which are involved in protein synthesis.
The rough ER had ribosomes attached while the smooth ER had no ribosome attached.
Rough ER has Ribosomes and Smooth ER does not.
The main difference is in their appearance: rough endoplasmic reticulum (ER) has ribosomes attached to its surface, giving it a rough texture, while smooth ER lacks ribosomes and appears smooth. Functionally, rough ER is involved in protein synthesis and membrane protein production, while smooth ER plays a role in lipid metabolism and detoxification processes.
Ribosomes are found on the rough ER, which are responsible for protein synthesis. Smooth ER does not have ribosomes.
it is connected to the nuclear membrane and the smooth ER
smooth ER
The Rough Endoplasmic Reticulum is connected to the nuclear membrane and is continuous with the Smooth Endoplasmic Reticulum within the cell. Its distinctive rough appearance is due to the presence of ribosomes on its surface, which are involved in protein synthesis.
Rough ER has numerous ribosomes on its surface. These are absent on smooth ER. Smooth ER studded with ribosomes. Rough ER transport of materials.
Rough ER looks like a maze and smooth ER looks like a sculpture. Another thing is that the Rough ER has ribosomes on it while the Smooth ER doesnt.
Rough ER has ribosomes on it, smooth ER does not
The rough Endoplasmic Reticulum is a continuation from the nuclear membrane, which in turn is connected to the smooth ER.
The rough ER had ribosomes attached while the smooth ER had no ribosome attached.
Ribosomes are found in rough ER while they are not found in smooth ER. These are what give the "rough" appearance.
what structure is found on the rough er that is noyt found on the smooth er
The difference between rough and smooth is the texture. Rough things have a bumpy, abrasive texture. Smooth things have are not rough.
A rough er has ribosomes while a soft er does not
