Without the rough er cells would ?
Degger [83]
There are two basic types of ER. Both rough ER and smooth ER have the same types of membranes but they have different shapes. Rough ER looks like sheets or disks of bumpy membranes while smooth ER looks more like tubes. Rough ER is called rough because it has ribosomes attached to its surface. 

<span>The double membranes of smooth and rough ER form sacs called </span>cisternae. Protein molecules are synthesized and collected in the cisternal space/lumen<span>. When enough proteins have been synthesized, they collect and are pinched off in </span>vesicles<span>. The vesicles often move to the Golgi apparatus for additional protein packaging and distribution. </span>

Smooth ER (SER)<span> acts as a storage organelle. It is important in the creation and storage of lipids and </span>steroids<span>. Steroids are a type of ringed organic molecule used for many purposes in an organism. They are not always about building the muscle mass of a weight lifter. Cells in your body that release oils also have more SER than most cells. </span><span>

Locomotion in Metazoa is usually due to the contraction of what? a. Skeleton b. Muscle c. Skin d. Nerves
Ede4ka [16]

Answer: b. Muscles

A metazoa is a division of animal kingdom that includes all animals expect protozoa and sponges. Metazoa division includes multicelluar animals, which exhibit highly differentiated cells. They have muscular and nerve system and well coordinated tissues and organs. Locomotion requires a coordination activity of muscular, skeletal and neural system. It is mainly achieved by contraction and relaxation of muscles that occurs due to specialized muscle proteins named as actin and myosin which receives signals from nerves.

Hence, locomotion in metazoa is due to contraction of muscles.

Fossils layers 175 mya, 250 mya, 400 mya, 450 mya
Alenkinab [10]

450 mya, is where you would find fossils.

Explanation:

The first layer would be newer organismis that haven't quite decayed yet.The second and third layer is where the bones of the dead organasims lie, they havent quite been through the whole process yet, but they are nearly complete just about 100,000 years left.The fourth layers have been through alot, and have been there for many many years we can say abot 100,000,000 years.They are ready to become a fossil fuel.
