Summary Introduction
To write:
About the structure of the endoplasmic reticulum and the differences between rough ER and smooth ER and also their functions.
Introduction:
Endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is a complex network of tubular membranes in a eukaryotic cytoplasm that are either smooth surface, i.e., smooth ER or ribosomes are attached to the external surface, i.e., rough ER.
