The document discusses the functions of rough endoplasmic reticulum (RER). The RER can attach ribosomes and has three main functions: 1) to make more membrane, 2) to provide an internal structural skeleton to support the cell's shape, and 3) to perform protein synthesis and transport biochemical compounds within the cell.
