Answer:
The major differences between rough and smooth endoplasmic reticulum are
Endoplasmic reticulum synthesizes lipids (smooth endoplasmic reticulum)
and proteins (rough endoplasmic reticulum) which are responsible for formation
of membrane. Thus, they help in membrane biogenesis.
Smooth Endoplasmic
Reticulum
Rough Endoplasmic
Reticulum
SER has no ribosomal particles on the surface, hence look smooth.
It
helps in manufacturing of lipids and fat molecules.
RER
has particles of ribosome on the surface, therefore are rough in texture.
They
are the sites of protein synthesis.
