Animal cells have an endoplasmic reticulum. If you look up animals cells, you will find exactly where it is in the cell. Also, there are two type of ER. there is rough and smooth. This is in plant and animal cells.


How does rough ER differ from smooth ER in structures function?

Rough endoplasmic reticulum is studded with protein-producing ribosomes giving it a "rough" appearance, hence its name. It works in concert with the Golgi complex to target new proteins to their proper destinations. The rough endoplasmic reticulum is continuous with both the nuclear envelope and the smooth endoplasmic reticulum. Smooth endoplasmic reticulum has functions in several metabolic processes; it contains enzymes, and it stores calcium ions in muscle cells. Lipid synthesis takes place in the smooth endoplasmic reticulum. The smooth endoplasmic reticulum is continuous with the rough endoplasmic reticulum.


How do smoothe endoplasmic reticulum function?

Smooth endoplasmic reticulum is involved in lipid and steroid hormone synthesis, detoxification of drugs and toxins, and storage of calcium ions in cells. It lacks ribosomes on its surface, which distinguishes it from rough endoplasmic reticulum and allows it to carry out these specialized functions.
