It can be defined as a eukaryotic organelle, which forms a network of tubules, vesicles and cisternae within the cells. There are two regions of the Endoplasmic reticulum, which differ in both structure and function. One region is called as rough Endoplasmic reticulum, as it contains ribosome attached to the cytoplasmic side of the membrane and they are the series of flattened sacs. The other region is called as smooth Endoplasmic reticulum as it lacks the  attached ribosome and they are tubule network.
