Difference Between Smooth and Rough Endoplasmic Reticulum (with Comparison Chart)
The difference lies between the two is that the Smooth Endoplasmic Reticulum is not bounded by the ribosomes and is known for storing the lipids and proteins. Meanwhile, the Rough Endoplasmic Reticulum is bounded by the ribosomes and store proteins.
The another most essential component of the eukaryotic cell is the Endoplasmic Reticulum or ER. It occupies almost 10 percent of the total cell volume. ER is of two type smooth and rough.
