Detailed explanation-1: -Smooth endoplasmic reticulum acts as a lipid production site. SER is abundant in cells involved in the production of lipid and lipid derivatives like the oil glands of the skin, ovaries, and testes.
Detailed explanation-2: -Lipid Synthesis by the Smooth Endoplasmic Reticulum The endoplasmic reticulum also synthesizes lipids, especially phospholipids and cholesterol. These lipids are rapidly incorporated into the lipid bilayer of the endoplasmic reticulum, thus causing the endoplasmic reticulum to grow more extensive.
Detailed explanation-3: -Organ systems which produce many proteins have cells with a large amount of rough endoplasmic reticulum. The smooth endoplasmic reticulum plays a major role in synthesizing lipids by means of enzymes embedded in these smooth membranes.
Detailed explanation-4: -Answer and Explanation: Lipids are made in the smooth endoplasmic reticulum (SER). The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is an organelle that is made up of tubules, and it is an extension of the nuclear membrane (the membrane the surrounds the nucleus of the cell).
