what are the main points of the cell theory |
all living things are made of one or more cells all life functions take place in cells all cells are made from pre existing cells |
|
what are the five needs of all living things |
need energy reproduce grow produce wastes respond and adapt to their environment |
|
label the microscope |
|
|
define ocular lens or eyepiece |
the part of microscope that you look through
|
|
define coarse adjustment knob |
moves tube up and down to focus the specimen |
|
define fine adjustment knob |
focuses specimen and produces clear image |
|
define revolving nosepiece |
holds objective lens |
|
define objective lenses |
low medium high, allows the magnification of the specimen |
|
define stage |
slide is placed on for examination
|
|
define stage or slide clips |
holds slide in place |
|
define diaphragm |
controls the amount of light reaching the specimen |
|
define lamp or mirror |
light source |
|
define condenser lens |
directs the light to the specimen |
|
define arm |
holds eyepiece and objective lens the correct distance apart |
|
define base |
supports the microscope |
|
define total magnification |
eyepiece 10X magnification and objective lens 4X low, 10X medium, 40X high |
|
define field of view |
how much you can see through the microscope |
|
what is a micro meter |
1mm = 1000Mm |
|
how do you calculate FOV on low power
|
measure with a ruler in mm how large the micro space is then multiply the mm of the ruler by 1000 |
|
what is the FOV formula for medium and high |
FOV = magnification low --------------------------- × FOV low magnification med/high |
|
ex. Find the FOVmed if FOVlow = 4000Mm and eyepiece = 10X and low=4X, medium =10X high=100X |
FOVmed= 4X -------- × 4000 = 1600Mm 10X |
|
how do estimate the size of a specimen |
estimate how many would fit in the FOV and then divide that number by the FOV |
|
label the animal cell |
|
|
label the plant cell |
|
|
define the cell membrane |
protective barrier, control what enter and leaves the cell |
|
define cytoplasm
|
jelly like substance hat fills the cell and helps transport things in the cell |
|
define nucleus |
contains DNA and genetic material like the brain of the cell and controls everything |
|
define chloroplasts |
only in plants, where photosynthesis take place, contains chlorophyll producing a green color |
|
define vesicles and vacuoles |
stores things for the cell |
|
define lysosomes |
place where digestion takes place |
|
define ribosomes |
may be attached to the endoplasmic reticulum and it is where proteins are produced |
|
define endoplasmic reticulum smooth and rough |
interconnected tubes that branch from the nuclear envelope rough- protein synthesis smooth- fat and oil production |
|
define golgi apparatus |
composed of flat disc snapped sacs involved with secretion |
|
define mitochondria |
rod like structures where reactions occur to produce sugar |
|
define centrioles |
animal cells, involved in cell division |
|
define cell wall
|
rigid outer shell in plant cell that protects the cell |
|
what are differences between plant and animal cells |
plants have - cell wall, chloroplasts, larger vacuoles animals have- lysosomes, centrioles |
|
what are the benefits of multicellular organisms |
cell specialization grow larger survive i wider rang of environments |
|
whats the organization of multicellular organisms |
organelles,cells, tissues, organs, systems |
|
define stem cells |
unspecialized cells |
|
what is the chemical formula for photosynthesis |
CO2 + H2O + light energy -> C6H12O6 + O2 |
|
define epidermal cells |
protective skin prevents the evaporation of water |
|
define palisade tissue cells |
photosynthetic cells - most photosynthesis happens here |
|
define spongy tissue cells |
contain chloroplasts |
|
define stomata |
small openings in the epidermal layer that allow the exchange of gas |
|
define guard cells |
guard cells open and close the stomata |
|
what are the two types of vascular tissue |
phloem and xylem |
|
define phloem |
transports sugar from the leaves to the rest of plant |
|
define xylem |
transports water from the roots to the rest of the plant |
|
what are xylem and phloem arranged in |

what is the difference between photosynthesis and respiration |
respiration is the process of the release of carbon dioxide and can happen normally in the dark |
|
what is the most important gas exchange organ in the plant |
