Hi,
Smooth Endoplasmic reticulum Is just a piece of ER that does not have Ribosomes on it, and Rough ER is just Endoplasmic reticulum that have ribosomes on them.
this is a picture of them both with differences.

Explain the difference between rough ER and smooth ER?
The smooth endoplasmic reticulum has nothing on its surface, hence the name. The rough endoplasmic reticulum has ribose studded throughout it, for the purpose of translating the messenger RNA.
What is the difference between rough and smooth er?
rough is a little bumpy or hard or tough and smooth is flat and straight and somtimes soft
What Does smooth ER and rough ER do?
The ER is involved with the production, processing, transport, and storage of materials inside a cell. The difference between the Smooth and Rough one is that the rough one is associated with ribosomes whereas the smooth one lacks ribosomes. Hope this was helpfull :)
What is the function of the rough and smooth er?
The part of the ER covered in ribosomes is rough ER. Rough ER is usually found by the nucleus. Ribosomes on rough ER make many of the cell's proteins. The ER then delivers these proteins throughout the cell.. The ER that lacks ribosomes is smooth ER. The functions of smooth ER include making lipids and breaking down toxic materials that could damage the cell.
What are the same organelles in plants and animals?
Many organelles include mitochondria, rough ER, smooth ER, lysosome. peroxisome, Golgi apparatus. Both have similar nuclear structure.
How can you rough ER from smooth ER?
Rough ER looks like a maze and smooth ER looks like a sculpture. Another thing is that the Rough ER has ribosomes on it while the Smooth ER doesnt.
What makes rough Endoplastic Reticulum look rough?
Ribosomes make Rough ER have a rough appearance. Smooth ER does not have ribosomes, and therefore has a smooth appearance.
What performs the same function of smooth er?
The Smooth ER performs a very similar function as the Rough ER. I don't know exactly what either do but if you look up "What performs the same function as Smooth ER?"
How can you tell rough ER from the smooth ER?
Rough ER has numerous ribosomes on its surface. These are absent on smooth ER. Smooth ER studded with ribosomes. Rough ER transport of materials.
How does rough endoplasmic reticulum differ from the smooth endoplasmic reticulum?
Endoplasmic Reticulum (ER) is a network of intracellular membranes, it links the plasma membrane and other membraneous organelles. it is involved in the production, processing, transport and storage of materials within a cell.Rough Endoplasmic Reticulum (RER), is assosisated with ribosomes, where proteins are made.Smooth endoplasmic reticulum(SER), lacks ribosomes and is involved in the metabolism of certain compounds and synthesis of lipids.
How can you tell rough ER and smooth ER?
The Rough ER has a surface covered by mitochondria - which appear as small circles, and make the surface "rough" in appearance. The Smooth ER does not have these ribosomes, and so the surface is just one smooth line.
Are endoplasmic reticulum smooth and rough?
Smooth ER aren't covered in ribosomes, but rough ER are. ER are like transport tubes that go through the cell.
What is the difference between a rough ER and a Smooth ER?
The Smooth ER has no ribosomes on it and the Rough ER does. :) How simple is that?
Where how can you tel rough er from smooth er cells?
If there is a picture of the smooth and rough E.R., you can tell the difference because the rough E.R. has something that looks like little round bumps on the surface. The smooth E.R. is smooth like silk. :)
What the is difference between rough ER smooth ER?
Smooth ER, endoplasmic reticulum, does not have ribosomes, and Rough ER does.rough er is studded with ribosomes while smooth er is not.
How does rough ER from smooth ER?
if you meant how they differ, its like this. Rough endoplasmic reticulum has ribosomes on it, these are responsible for proten synthesis. The smooth ER on the other hand does not have ribosomes
How can you tell the difference of smooth er and rough er?
Smooth ER, endoplasmic reticulum, does not have ribosomes, and Rough ER does.rough er is studded with ribosomes while smooth er is not.
