Detailed explanation-1: -What is the function of the endoplasmic reticulum? The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) serves important functions particularly in the synthesis, folding, modification, and transport of proteins.
Detailed explanation-2: -The endoplasmic reticulum can either be smooth or rough, and in general its function is to produce proteins for the rest of the cell to function. The rough endoplasmic reticulum has on it ribosomes, which are small, round organelles whose function it is to make those proteins.
Detailed explanation-3: -The rough endoplasmic reticulum is different from the smooth endoplasmic reticulum. The rough endoplasmic reticulum contains ribosomes and makes protein, whereas the smooth endoplasmic reticulum does not contain ribosomes and functions to make lipids and detoxify the cell.
