The main function of the Rough ER is to assist in protein production, so cells where large amounts of protein are produced, such as pancreatic cells (which produce digestive enzymes), will have more RER.

In contrast, cells with main functions such as transport will not need as much (or any).

If a protein without a hydrophobic domain is synthesized on the rough endoplasmic reticulum's what places would you NOT expect to find it?

If a protein without a hydrophobic domain is synthesized on the rough endoplasmic reticulum, you would not expect to find it integrated into the membrane of the ER, targeted to other membrane-bound organelles, or secreted outside the cell. This is because proteins without hydrophobic regions are less likely to be involved in membrane interactions or secretion pathways.
