1. The "rough" endoplasmic reticulum gets its name from the ribosomes that it's covered in, making it's surface rough.

2. Although the Golgi Apparatus gets all the credit for transporting proteins to the mitochondria for energy, the rough endoplasmic reticulum is responsible for making those proteins useful by creating protein chains.

3. The rough endoplasmic reticulum is not just in one place in the cell, it expands across the entire cell, nurturing all other organelles.

# data[].attributes.body
The bulk of the rough endoplasmic reticulum is composed of sheets, a two-dimensional arrangement of flattened sacs that span the cytoplasm. These membranes include ribosomes as well as the translocon, a significant protein complex required for protein translation in the rough ER.

# data[].attributes.body
The rough endoplasmic reticulum is covered in ribosomes, which is an organelle used to transport RNA and has vital functions in other organelles such as the mitochondria. The rough ER and its ribosomes work together to synthesize proteins for the rest of the cell's organelles to use for their specific functions.

# data[].attributes.body
The rough endoplasmic reticulum is a workhorse organelle that primarily produces the proteins and other materials that the rest of the cell needs. Although the mitochondria generally receives all the credit for providing the cell with energy, the rough endoplasmic reticulum exists all around the cell, providing proteins, energy, and materials to nurture all other organelles.

Difference Between Smooth and Rough Endoplasmic Reticulum

# data[].attributes.body
The presence of ribosomes is the primary distinction between Rough Endoplasmic Reticulum and Smooth Endoplasmic Reticulum. Rough ER gets its name from the distinctively rough appearance it takes on when ribosomes connect to its surface. A smooth ER, on the other hand, doesn't have ribosomes on its surface.

# data[].attributes.body
Rough ER is present in every part of the cell, but it is more prevalent close to the nucleus and the Golgi apparatus.
