The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is not visible under a light microscope because it is too small and lacks inherent color. It is a complex network of membranous tubules and sacs within the cell, requiring an electron microscope for detailed observation. Additionally, its structure is often obscured by other cellular components, making it challenging to identify without specialized staining techniques.
