Endoplasmic Reticulum is a long piece of membrane inside of the cytoplasm in a Eukaryotic cell. It connects to the Nuclear Membrane as well. It has numerous ribosomes attached as it helps with protein and lipid synthesis. It has both smooth and rough forms, each which do different things inside the cell.
