write a short note on endoplastic recticulum and parts also
Answers
it is not endoplastic it is endoplasmic reticulum
The general structure of the endoplasmic reticulum is a network of membranes called cisternae. These sac-like structures are held together by the cytoskeleton.
it is of 2 types
1. RER (Rough Endoplasmic Reticulum)
2. SER (Smooth Endoplasmic Reticulum)
1. RER function
a network of tubular membranes within the cytoplasm of the cell, occurring either with a smooth surface (smooth endoplasmic reticulum) or studded with ribosomes (rough endoplasmic reticulum), involved in the transport of materials.
2. SER function
The smooth endoplasmic reticulum, or smooth ER, is an organelle found in both animal cells and plant cells. An organelle is a sub-unit within a cell that has a specialized function. The main function of the smooth ER is to make cellular products like hormones and lipids.
