Are ribosomes found on the RER?

yes they are attached with RER and therefore give the rough appearance to them as compared wtih SER


What are cisternae in Golgi apparatus?

# A cisterna (plural cisternae) comprises a flattened membrane disk that makes up theGolgi apparatus. A typical Golgi has anywhere from 3 to 7 cisternae stacked upon each other like a stack of dinner plates, but there are usually around 6. The cisternae carry Golgi enzymes to help or to modify cargo proteins traveling through them destined for other parts of the cell. # The cisternae also carry structural proteins important for its maintenance as a flattened membrane and its stacking upon each other. # The earliest cisternae are called the cis-cisternae, followed by the medial cisternae, then the trans-cisternae (as they move away from the endoplasmic reticulum). # The formation of new cisternae is often called the cis-Golgi network and at the end of the Golgi where transport to other parts of the cell occurs is called the trans-Golgi network. Both are thought to be specialized cisternae leading in and out of the Golgi apparatus. # Cisternae may also refer to flattened regions of the rough endoplasmic reticulum.


Are the found freely floating in the cytoplasm?

Ribosomes are found freely in the cell cytoplasm and they are also found attached to a membrane system called the RER.


What is flattened membranes called?

Flattened membranes are typically referred to as "cisternae." Cisternae are a series of stacked, membrane-bound structures found within organelles such as the endoplasmic reticulum and the Golgi apparatus. They play crucial roles in processes like protein and lipid synthesis, processing, and transport within cells.


What is a rer?

RER IS WHAT IS IS RERRER stands for Rough Endoplasmic Reticulum and is found in eukaryotic cells. They are channels structured like the membrane and are basically channels formed throughout a cell. They are called rough ER's because they are studded with ribosomes on the surface giving it a rough look through a microscope.

Is cisternae in an endoplasmic reticulum?

Yes, cisternae are found in the endoplasmic reticulum. The endoplasmic reticulum is a network of membranes in eukaryotic cells that includes cisternae, which are flattened sacs or chambers where various cellular processes take place, such as protein synthesis and lipid metabolism.
