Quick Answer. The smooth endoplasmic reticulum is the organelle responsible for the production of lipids in the cell. This particular reticulum also synthesizes carbohydrates and steroid hormones. The endoplasmic reticulum is made up of membranous sacs and tubules.
The golgi body stores, packages and distributes the proteins and lipids made in the endoplasmic reticulum. Proteins, which are meant to return to the endoplasmic reticulum, â¦carry a distinctive 'tag'. The golgi apparatus recognizes the tag and transports the proteins back to the endoplasmic reticulum.
