cell wall in a plant
|
Is a rigid layer that lies outside the cells plasma membrane.
|
|
central vacuole
|
Is a large, fluid-filled organelle that stores not only water but also enzymes, metabolic wastes and other materials.
|
|
plastid
|
Are organelles that are surrounded by a double membrane and contain their own DNA.
|
|
chloroplast
|
Use light energy to make carbohydrates from carbon dioxide and water
|
|
thylakoid
|
Each chloroplast contains a system of flattened, membranous sacs
|
|
chlorophyll
|
The main molecule that absorbs light and captures light energy for the cell
|
|
Which of the following organelles is found in plant cells but not in animal cells?
|
Chloroplast
|
|
The end products of photosynthesis include
|
sugars
|
|
A cell that contains a cell wall, chloroplasts and a central vacuole is a ???
|
plant cell
|
|
a central vacuole forms from what?
|
the fusion of smaller vacuoles
|
|
Thylakoids are located where?
|
inside the inner membrane of a chloroplast
|
|
How are secondary cell walls different from primary cell walls?
|
Primary cell walls are assembled on the surface of the plasma membrane while the cell is growing. They can grow as the cell grows. Secondary cell walls are produced after the cell walls cannot expand.
|
|
What are plant cells walls made of?
|
cellulose embedded in proteins and carbohydrates.
|
|
What is the function of cell walls?
|
Cell walls help support and protect the plant.
|
|
What is the appearance of a plant cell when water is plentiful?
|
The central vacuole explands. The other organelles are pushed against the plasma membrane in a thin layer.
