The endoplasmic reticulum is mostly devoid of ribosomes (smooth) when cells are producing large quantities of lipid.

The liquid component of the cytoplasm is known as the

Receptor mediated endocytosis

Electron transport reactions that occur in the mitochondria of eukaryotes take place on the inner membrane of that structure.

Compartmentalization of the interior of the prokaryotic cell makes possible the separation of different biochemical and physiological functions.
