The rough endoplasmic reticulum (RER) has ribosomes on its surface. This is what give the RER a "rough" appearance. Rough ER looks like sheets.The RER synthesizes (makes) and packages proteins. The RER is attached to the nuclear membrane. The Golgi apparatus tends to be on the other side of the RER.

The smooth endoplasmic reticulum (SER) does not contain ribosomes. The Smooth ER looks more like tubes. The SER helps in the storage of proteins and lipids. Cells that produce oils have a higher ratio of SERs than do other cells. The smooth endoplasmic reticulum can be found dispersed throughout the cytoplasm of the cell.

RER-:it looks rough because ribosomes r attached to its surface. They r the site of protein synthesis.

SER-:it look smooth because no ribosomes r present on its surface. They r the site of lipid (fat) synthesis. They detoxify many poisons n drugs.

Hope it may help u ☺️☺️
