Answer:

Store Energy – When we take in more energy than we need, the body stores it as adipose tissue (fatty tissue, which we call fat).  

Regulate and Signal – Lipids regulate the temperature of your body, keeping it steady, not too hot, and not too cold.  

Insulate and Protect – Our bodies are padded with fat, protecting us from everyday friction.

Aid Digestion and Increase Bioavailability – When food breaks down in the gut, fat is released and combines with fat-soluble nutrients

Which three statements correctly describe the endoplasmic reticulum?
Sunny_sXe [5.5K]

I have searched everywhere, but I have not found the proposals of the question, but I will explain to you what is the endoplasmic reticulum so that you can answer it.

The endoplasmic reticulum is a eukaryotic organelle located in the cytoplasm.

The endoplasmic reticulum is a network of membrane tubules (often interconnected) scattered throughout the cytoplasm of eukaryotic cells. Its membrane, which alone represents more than half of the cellular membrane system, is in contact with the nuclear envelope.

The endoplasmic reticulum can be:

Granular (or rough) (RER) that is to say associated with ribosomes.

Smooth (SER).

The granular endoplasmic reticulum is the place of synthesis (in the associated ribosomes) of the proteins secreted outside the cell and of the proteins and lipids constituting the membranes of the cellular organelles. Golgi, lysosomes, mitochondria, nucleus, ribosomes, vesicles ...). It participates in the correct folding of the proteins that have just been synthesized.

The smooth endoplasmic reticulum participates in cellular metabolism, synthesizing lipids and storing calcium.
