Yes, goblet cells contain smooth endoplasmic reticulum (SER). The SER in goblet cells is involved in the synthesis and secretion of mucins, which are the primary components of mucus. This organelle plays a crucial role in the production and packaging of these glycoproteins, contributing to the cell's function in providing lubrication and protection in epithelial tissues.
What else can I help you with?
Name the two kinds of endoplasmic reticulum?
Two types of Endoplasmic Reticuli exists, the rough endoplasmic reticulum and the smooth endoplasmic reticulum. The rough endoplasmic reticulum is involved in the synthesis of proteins -{from through}- VIA the ribosomes embedded within its structure. The smooth endoplasmic reticulum is involved in the synthesis of lipids and steroids.
Where lipids are synthesized in eukaryotes?
The smooth endoplasmic reticulum.
What is the name of the organelle that synthesizes lipids and carbohydrates?
smooth endoplasmic reticulum
Which organelle is primarily involved in the synthesis of oils?
The endoplasmic reticulum (specifically the smooth endoplasmic reticulum) is primarily involved in the synthesis of oils in a cell. It uses enzymes to catalyze the reactions involved in building lipid molecules, including oils.
Is smooth ER continuous with the nuclear envelope?
The endoplasmic reticulum
Does an animal have a smooth endoplasmic reticulum?
Yes; Animal cells contain a smooth endoplasmic reticulum (as well as plant cells).
The cells that produce the oils that coat are hair contain a lot of what?
Rough endoplasmic reticulum & smooth endoplasmic reticulum Because hair contain protein called keratin. Proteins are made in rough ER. And lipids are produced by the smooth ER.
Is the endoplasmic reticulum connected to the smooth endoplasmic reticulum?
No because if they been connected then it be smooth endoplasmic reticulum or the rough endoplasmic reticulum and it will be one of the both :p
What does rough endoplasmic contain that smooth endoplasmic reticulum does not?
Ribosomes.
Why is the smooth Endo Reticulum smooth?
Smooth endoplasmic reticulum is considered "smooth" because it does not contain ribosomes that attach to its walls. "Rough" endoplasmic reticulum, on the other hand, is classified as all endoplasmic reticulum walls where ribosomes are attached. Ribosomes are created inside the nucleus and often move through the endoplasmic reticulum in the process of carrying out their function - making proteins.
Where lipids are synthesized in eukaryotes?
The smooth endoplasmic reticulum.

What is another word for endoplasmic reticulum?
smooth endoplasmic reticulum
What is the size of the smooth endoplasmic reticulum?
there is really no definite size of a smooth endoplasmic reticulum, they range in size. :)
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.
What is the name of the organelle that synthesizes lipids and carbohydrates?
smooth endoplasmic reticulum
What is the membranous system that has rough and smooth varieties?
The endoplasmic reticulum is the membranous system that has rough and smooth varieties. The rough endoplasmic reticulum is studded with ribosomes that synthesize proteins, while the smooth endoplasmic reticulum plays a role in lipid metabolism and detoxification.
