It is a kind of channel that carries substances, such as proteins, oil droplets, water, to other parts of the cell.
Well, to make it easier, endoplasmic reticulum is actually a fancy way of saying "cellular highway". I will explain to you why. I always like to study BIOLOGY relating our activities and our stuff.
Okay, let's push aside cells. Let's think of us, humans. We can't stay in one place, we gotta moving all around the city. What do we use for moving around the city: either roads or sidewalks or footpaths.
Just like that, a cell also has a medium or road or a channel where all the substances can move around the cell. Well, its ER! So, from now on, everytime you are struggling with this difficult, L O N G word, just replace it with "cellular highway". The ER is like a water pipe, too. Water flows through it. Here, cellur substances flow through it. The ER is connected to the nucleus.
SUMMARY: 1# ER aka Endoplasmic Reticulum is a kind of channel that carries substances, such as proteins, oil droplets, water, to other parts of the cell. 2# Try thinking it easy: replace it with "cellular highway". 3# It is much like the roads or sidewalks, we walk on.
<h2>The innermost lining of the stomach secretes mucus, hydrochloric acid as well as certain types of digestive enzymes to digest or breakdown the food present in the stomach.</h2>
The job of catalysts in chemical reactions is to make the reaction go faster by lowering the amount of energy needed to activate the reaction. If less energy is needed for the reaction to occur, then the reaction can go faster because a large energy build-up is not needed.
In solids, precipitation occurs if the concentration of one solid is above the solubility limit in the host solid, due to rapid quenching or ion implantation, and the temperature is high enough that diffusion can lead to segregation into precipitates.
