Question

How is endoplasmic reticulum important for membrane biogenesis

Answer 1

Answer:

membrane is the biogenesis is the process of formation of a plasma membrane with the help of protein and lipids.

Answer 2

ANSWER:

Endoplasmic reticulum helps in the formation of lipids, proteins and steroids in the cells. These are essential for the process of membrane biogenesis.

EXPLANATION:

Membrane biogenesis is the process of the plasma membrane formation in cells. The 'plasma membrane' is formed by using proteins and lipids.

Endoplasmic reticulum therefore performs a vital role in membrane biogenesis by providing the essential lipids and proteins for the process. The endoplasmic reticulum carries out the 'metabolism of steroids and fats'.
