Wisconsinites need to appreciate me more; I make your liver cells work and take the alcohol levels down for you! If I quit my job, all of you are gonna die.

I don't support drinking too much cause you can kill me from hard work

During your tanning session out on the beach, I'm producing you some Sunny Vita D to help you out for later!

Wait we're getting to winter

If you were amazed by our structure and functions and want a more in depth description...check out the article below! You won’t be disappointed! ⁦@MrsK_FHS⁩ #FHSTwitterWar https://t.co/11JErhKvxO

Even though we don’t synthesize proteins, we play an important role in protein transportation! We transport products from the RER to the Golgi Apparatus and other parts of the cell. What would y’all do without us? @MrsK_FHS #FHSTwitterWar

I help convert glycogen to glucose in the liver. My enzyme, glucose-6-phosphate catalyzes the final step of glucose production in the liver. Without me, eating has no pay off, and you’ll have no energy! @MrsK_FHS #FHSTwitterWar

[SmoothER than you @smoothercell]

Without us, we wouldn’t be able to protect your cell from harm and the cell won’t be able to maintain homeostasis... and you’d probably be dead. #FhsTwitterWar @MrsK_FHS

[SmoothER than you @smoothercell]

You shouldn’t have a problem with finding where we are in a cell, we’re morphologically distinct, often made of tubular structures called cisternae. #FhsTwitterWar @MrsK_FHS

[SmoothER than you @smoothercell]

We are a major cellular organelle when it comes to steroid-secreting cells. We have multiple enzymatic systems made for certain steps in the synthesis of steroid hormones such as testosterone and estrogen. #FhsTwitterWar @MrsK_FHS

[SmoothER than you @smoothercell]

In striated muscle cells we’re known as the sarcoplasmic reticulum! There we regulate the calcium ion concentration. This means we release calcium into the sarcoplasm to initiate muscle contractions! You can’t run away from us! @MrsK_FHS #FHSTwitterWar

@RoughKwonTheER @MrsK_FHS If you’re still having trouble distinguishing us from the Rough ER check out this video!! Endoplasmic Reticulum: Rough and Smooth ER https://t.co/ZYGkE7Yi1H via @YouTube. #FHSTwitterWar @MrsK_FHS

@apparatus_g @wethenucleus @RoughKwonTheER @MrsK_FHS Someone can't keep up with the work load it seems

Did you know that we have a production of membrane phospholipids and cholesterol required for building membrane formation? #FHSTwitterWar @MrsK_FHS

[SmoothER than you @smoothercell]

Fun Fact: Us Smooth ER’s love to hang out in liver cells where we detoxify drugs, alcohol, and metabolic waste. Our enzymes catalyze reactions that render these harmful substances water-soluble which contributes to their removal! We keep the people safe! @MrsK_FHS #FHSTwitterWar

[SmoothER than you @smoothercell]

Some of you only work in either plants or animals, but I work in both! Tell me you specialized organelles, what'd you do without us eh?

Need a synthesis of lipids and metabolism of carbohydrates? The smooth endoplasmic reticulum will do that for you! We’ll also store your calcium ions and detoxify the drugs and poisons for you, because we care. #FHSTwitterWar @MrsK_FHS
