Smooth endoplasmic reticulum
Explain what is an analogy for the smooth endoplasmic reticulum?
Expert
Endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is just like a manufacturing plant, like the factory, where proteins and lipids are formed. This is also where the things are packaged into the boxed and sent off to several places. In cell, the smooth ER is the network of membrane bound bodies which lack the ribosomes (the molecules used in protein synthesis) and its primary function is to alter, encapsulate and transport the newly synthesized proteins and lipids that will be released or remain within the cytoplasm since the membrane bound vesicles. The smooth ER may also be compared to the highway, or the protein and lipid highway, if you will. It is sometimes known as the transitional ER since it consists of the exit sites from which the transport vesicles carrying these proteins and the lipids bud off for transport to Golgi apparatus. It is generally prominent in cells which specialize in lipid metabolism and synthesis.

Liveness Properties: A liveness property asserts that something good eventually happens, and is used mainly to ensure progress. Liveness properties prevent: starvation: Processes not getting the resources they need (e.g., CPU time, lock
Safety Properties: This property asserts that nothing bad will happen during the execution of the program (e.g., no deadlocks, or no attempts to take an item from an empty buffer). Safety properties are used mainly
