What else can I help you with?
What is a network of channels called that is used for moving materials within the cell?
cytoskeleton assists movement of organelles
What does the smooth endoplasmic reticulum make?
The smooth endoplasmic reticulum is involved in lipid and steroid hormone synthesis, detoxification of drugs and toxins, and calcium storage.
What is a site of lipid synthesis?
In a cell,lipid synthesis takes place in Smooth Endoplasmic Reticulum(SER).SER also works as a channel for transport of these lipids.Some of the lipids are used in formation of the plasma membrane.This process is known as bio genesis.
What are the bumps on the rough endoplasmic reticulum and what are they used for in the cell?
The bumps on the rough endoplasmic reticulum are ribosomes, which are responsible for protein synthesis in the cell. Ribosomes on the rough ER synthesize proteins that are either inserted into the ER membrane or exported from the cell.
What is an endoplasmic reticulin?
The endoplasmic reticulum is an organelle in eukaryotic cells responsible for protein and lipid synthesis. It consists of two regions: smooth ER, involved in lipid metabolism, and rough ER, studded with ribosomes that participate in protein synthesis. The correct term is "endoplasmic reticulum," not "reticulin."
What does the smooth endoplasm reticulum do for the cell?
A smooth endoplasmic reticulum can be used for transportation. I think there are more functions but I'm not sure what they are. Also, a rough endoplasmic reticulum is just like smooth endoplasmic reticulum except with ribosomes attached.
What organelles are used to make testosterone?
smooth endoplasmic reticulum

What is endoplasmic reticlulum?
In a cell, the endoplasmic reticulum(ER) is a tubular structure extending from the nuclear membrane to the plasma or the cell membrane. It transports material from the nucleus to the other organelles of the cell. The Smooth Endoplasmic Reticulum(SER) synthesizes lipid. The Rough Endoplasmic Reticulum(RER) has ribosomes over it. Ribosomes are used for protein synthesis.

What organelles can be seen using a light microscope?
sometimes the nucleus. To see the nucleus, you may have to stain the sample. Plastids (only found in plant cells) are visible too, along with the cell wall, the cell membrane, and the mitochondria.

An inhibitor of what could be used to block the release of calcium from the endoplasmic reticulum?
An inhibitor of ryanodine receptors could be used to block the release of calcium from the endoplasmic reticulum. Ryanodine receptors are calcium release channels located on the endoplasmic reticulum membrane that play a key role in releasing stored calcium into the cytoplasm. Blocking these receptors can prevent the release of calcium and subsequent downstream signaling events.
