|
|
|
What are chlorophyll?
|
Chlorophyll are pigments that help plants with photosynthesis by allowing the plants to absorb light.
|
|
|
Where are chlorophyll located?
|
Chlorophyll are located in chloroplasts.
|
|
|
What do plant cells ahve that animal cells do not?
|
Plant cells have cell walls, vacuoles, and chloroplasts.
|
|
|
What are adjacent plants cells connected by?
|
Adjacent plant cells are connected by plasmodesmata.
|
|
|
What are the 3 plant cell types?
|
Parenchyma, collenchyma, and sclerenchyma.
|
|
|
Which plant cell type has the thinnest cell walls?
|
Parenchyma have the thinnest cell walls.
|
|
|
Which plant cell type has the thickest cell walls?
|
Sclerenchyma have the thickest cell walls.
|
|
|
Put the plant cell types in order of cell wall thickness, from least to greatest.
|
From least to greatest - parenchyma, collenchyma, sclerenchyma.
|
|
|
True or false? There are many different types of parenchyma, collenchyma, and sclerenchyma cells.
|
True, there are many different types of parenchyma, collenchyma, and sclerenchyma cells.
|
|
|
What is lignin?
|
Lignin is a complex polymer that helps cells maintain their shape.
|
|
|
What are parenchyma cells?
|
Parenchyma cells are thin, non-lignified primary walls.
|
|
|
Are parenchyma cells reinforced with lignin?
|
No, parenchyma cells are not reinforced with lignin.
|
|
|
Are parenchyma cells alive or dead at maturity?
|
Parenchyma cells are alive at maturity.
|
|
|
Parenchyma cells are ____potent.
|
Parenchyma cells are totipotent.
|
|
|
What does totipotent mean?
|
A totipotent cell is one that retains the capacity to divide and develop into a complete plant.
|
|
|
Are sclerenchyma cells reinforced with lignin?
|
Yes, sclerenchyma cells are reinforced with lignin and have thick cell walls.
|
|
|
In leaves, what do parenchyma cells function in?
|
In leaves, parenchyma cells function in photosynthesis and gas exchange.
|
|
|
In what type of cell does most of the photosynthesis occur?
|
Most of the photosynthesis in a plant occurs in parenchyma cells, which contain the most chloroplasts.
|
|
|
In fruits and roots, what cells function in starch storage?
|
In fruits and roots, parenchyma cells function in starch storage.
|
|
|

|
Parenchyma cells function in asexual reproduction.
|
|
|
What are rhizome?
|
Rhizome are underground stems and contain parenchyma cells, which function in asexual reproduction.
|
|
|
What are stolon?
|
Stolon are above-ground stems and contain parenchyma cells, which function in asexual reproduction.
|
|
|
What is a callus?
|
Callus is a mass of undifferentiated tissue.
|
|
|
