Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Smooth ER, by contrast, is not associated with ribosomes, and its functions differ. The smooth ER is involved in the synthesis of lipids, including cholesterol and phospholipids, which are used in the production of new cellular membrane.
Detailed explanation-2: -Smooth endoplasmic reticulum lacks ribosomes and helps synthesize and concentrate various substances needed by the cell.
Detailed explanation-3: -The smooth endoplasmic reticulum functions in many metabolic processes. It synthesizes lipids, phospholipids as in plasma membranes, and steroids.
Detailed explanation-4: -Regions of ER that lack bound ribosomes are called smooth endoplasmic reticulum, or smooth ER.
