Verified step by step guidance

Understand the function of the smooth endoplasmic reticulum (SER): The SER is involved in lipid synthesis, detoxification of drugs and poisons, and storage of calcium ions.

Identify the types of cells listed in the problem: Muscle cells, Liver cells, Red blood cells, and Neurons.

Consider the functions of each cell type: Muscle cells are involved in contraction and movement, liver cells are involved in metabolism and detoxification, red blood cells transport oxygen, and neurons transmit signals.

Relate the function of the SER to the cell types: Since the SER is involved in detoxification and lipid synthesis, cells that perform these functions would have a large amount of SER.

Conclude which cell type would have a large amount of SER: Liver cells are heavily involved in detoxification and lipid metabolism, making them the most likely to have a large amount of smooth endoplasmic reticulum.
