Cells typically have only two rough endoplasmic reticula (rough ER) because the rough ER consists of interconnected membranes that extend throughout the cytoplasm and function as a single continuous system. This structure allows for efficient protein synthesis and transport, as ribosomes attached to the rough ER synthesize proteins that are then processed and packaged within the same membrane system. Additionally, having multiple rough ERs would not significantly increase the efficiency of protein synthesis compared to the existing interconnected network. Thus, the configuration of the rough ER is optimized for cellular function.

What is the role of the reticulam?

This is if you're talking about cell organelles. There are two kinds of Endoplasmic Reticulum - Smooth and Rough The rough houses the ribosomes which are essential to protein production and cell growth. However, both types of reticulum serve as passageways for different substances of the body.


What does endoplasmic do for the cell?

There are two types of endoplasmic reticulum (ER): rough ER and smooth ER. The smooth ER makes lipids and metabolizes carbohydrates. The rough ER is covered in ribosomes. It processes the proteins that are on the outside of cells and organelles and also the membranes for the cell.
