#Billytheslayer says that Endoplasmic Reticulum is a seaweed like part of the cell that surrounds the nucleus and basically sends proteins and other nutrients to other parts of the cell. :) Hoped this helped!

The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is a cell organelle involved in protein and lipid synthesis. It has two types: smooth ER, involved in lipid synthesis, and rough ER, which has ribosomes attached and produces proteins. The ER plays a crucial role in maintaining cell structure and intracellular transport.

the Endoplasmic reticulum
Well, rough endoplasmic reticulum (ER) contains ribosomes. Also, proteins synthesized on these ribosomes are collected in the ER for transport throughout the cell.Sources - My textbook and cellsalive.com
Type your answer here... Rough endoplasmic reticulum
Endoplasmic Reticulum (Rough) : Highway with cars (for ribosomes) Endoplasmic Reticulum (Soft) : Road without cars* *because the soft endoplasmic reticulum does not contain ribosomes
