What organelle anchors ribosomes?
The organelle that anchors ribosomes is the Rough Endoplasmic Reticulum (ER). The Rough ER and ribosomes work very closely together. The rough Endoplasmic Reticulum is also the site of protein synthesis. The Smooth ER synthesizes lipids.
What is the difference between the rough er and the smothe er?
Rough ER has Ribosomes and Smooth ER does not.
Why does the rough ER appear pebbled?
There are ribosomes on the surface of the rough endoplasmic reticulum - these are ovular in shape and so make the surface appear 'rough'. Ribosomes are the site of protein synthesis - so this the rough ER is involved in the production of protein.
Is rough endoplasmic reticulum named rough because there are ribosomes attached to it?
Yes, that is correct. The rough endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is named "rough" because it has ribosomes attached to its surface, giving it a rough appearance under a microscope. These ribosomes are responsible for protein synthesis, making rough ER a site for protein production in the cell.
What are 2 functions of the endoplasmic reticulum?
if it's the rough ER then it functions to transport protein but if its the smooth ER it functions as a site of lipid and steroid synthesis
Rough er is a site of what?
Tough er is a site of what
Is Rough ER the site of steroid synthesis?
no, they are synthesised in the smooth ER of the cell
What is the function of Rough endoplasmic reteculume?
The rough ER is the site of protein synthesis as the ribosomes that stud it's surface put the growing polypeptide chain into the lumen of the rough ER. Also the rough ER is the site of some modifications to the protein before it goes to the Golgi body.
How do you use rough er in a sentence?
Rough endoplasmic reticulum is the site of protein for a cell.
What is the function of endoplasm?
The rough ER is the site of protein modification and folding of proteins, if they need folding. The smooth ER is the site of lipid and steroid synthesis.
What is the endoplasm function?
The rough ER is the site of protein modification and folding of proteins, if they need folding. The smooth ER is the site of lipid and steroid synthesis.
What organelle anchors ribosomes?
The organelle that anchors ribosomes is the Rough Endoplasmic Reticulum (ER). The Rough ER and ribosomes work very closely together. The rough Endoplasmic Reticulum is also the site of protein synthesis. The Smooth ER synthesizes lipids.
What do you understand by endoplasmic reticulum?
That the rough ER is the site of protein synthesis and the smooth ER deals with lipids, carbohydrates and detoxification.
Is the Golgi bodies the primary cellular site for the production of protein?
Proteins are mainly synthesized in the Rough Endoplasmic Reticulum, or Rough ER
What is a description for rough er?
The rough E.R has ribosomes attached to it and is the site of protein synthesis. it then takes the proteins it creates and transports them to the Golgi.
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.
What is the difference between rough er and the smoth er?
Rough ER has Ribosomes and Smooth ER does not.
