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.

∙ 9y agoER (endoplasmic reticulae) are the pathways in the cytoplasm of the cell connecting the nucleus. Smooth ER are without ribosomes on its membrane and rough ER have several ribosomes lining up the membrane. The ribosomes help in the assembly of amenoacids to form the proteins as per message received from mRNA.

Is marble smooth or rough?
im asking this because its on my homework im not sure if that's what my teacher
What does coarse mean in science?
Coarse means rough or not smooth to the touch, with regard to science.
What is the function of rough adjustment on a microscope?
to maximize and minimize the zooming
What is a series of folded membranes that move materials around the cell?
Endoplsmic Recticulum. There are two types of ER. The rough and smooth ER. The rough ER is dotted with ribosomes.
If a beam of light falls on a smooth wall will you observe regular reflection or diffuse reflection?
It will be diffuse reflection. No matter how smooth the wall looks it is rough on a microscopic scale and will scatter the light.
What structures distinguish rough ER from smooth ER?
The rough endoplasmic reticulum has ribosomes. The smooth endoplasmic reticulum does not.
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 does rough ER differ for smooth ER?
rough ER has a higher proportion of ribosomes within, hence the 'rough' appearance
What cell structures are found on the surface of rough er but not on smooth er?
ribisome
What are the dotted structures the rough er is dotted with called?
The protein structures that the rough er is dotted with are called ribosomes. If ribosomes are not present then it is called a smooth er.
What makes up of two types rough and smooth each with its own function?
The smooth endoplasmic reticulum and the rough endoplasmic reticulum.
What structure makes the rough endoplasmic reticulum different from the smooth endoplasmic reticulum?
The basic difference between the rough endoplasmic reticulum and the smooth endoplasmic reticulum is the rough ER has ribosomes latched on to it. This is what makes it "rough" and since the smooth ER does not have these organelles on it, it is smooth.The RER and the SER also differ in function. The rough ER is the cell's "membrane factory." Proteins and phospholipids that form part of all cellular membranes are manufactured in the rough ER. The smooth ER's main functions are lipid metabolism and synthesis of cholesterol.
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
What performs the same function as the rough endoplasmic reticulum?
The smooth ER is similiar.
How does rough er differ from smooth er structure and function?
ER (endoplasmic reticulae) are the pathways in the cytoplasm of the cell connecting the nucleus. Smooth ER are without ribosomes on its membrane and rough ER have several ribosomes lining up the membrane. The ribosomes help in the assembly of amenoacids to form the proteins as per message received from mRNA.
What is the protein structure the rough ER dotted with called?
The protein structures that the rough er is dotted with are called ribosomes. If ribosomes are not present then it is called a smooth er.
Where can you find a rough ER?
rough er or rough endoplasmic recticulum is a cell organelle found in plant and animal cells.they form a network of tubules extending from the nuclear membrane to the plasma membrane of the cell.They differ from smooth ER as they have ribosomes(small dot like structures) attached to their surface .
