Plant cells have chloroplasts


Plant cells have vacuoles



Animal cells have a plasma membrane


Animal cells have mitochondria


Animal cells have centrioles

What enzyme digests protein?

Protease

Glucose

What is the basic measuring unit of weight?

Gram

Is it okay to use coarse focus on high power?

No

160X=

8X * 20X

What is the monomer of a polypeptide?

Amino acid

How do you measure cells under the microscope using this correct units?

...

How do you read a 10 mL pipette

...

What is the definition of diffusion?

net movement of a substance from a region of higher concentration to a region of lower concentration due to kinetic energy.

What is the definition of osmosis?

Diffusion of water across a simi permeable membrane

What is the definition of field of view?

Circle of light that one sees when looking through the ocular lens.

Depth of field definition

is the thickness of the specimen that may be seen in focus at one time. The depth of field is very thin or short in the compound microscope so one must focus up and down to clearly view all the planes of the specimen.

how would you know which areas are exposed to ultraviolet light if you observe the plates from the scientific investigations lab?

The bacteria exposed to UV light was killed leaving the exposed areas clear of bacteria.

Be able to identify cell structures...

...

What is the general function of sclerenchyma cells?

Support and structure and thick cell walls.

What is the general function of parenchyma cells?

Multiply differentiate and perform metabolic functions

What is the general function of epidermal cells?

Protect the cell

What is the definition of an isotonic environment?

When the concentration of a solution is equal on both the inside and the outside of a membrane

What is a hypertonic environment?

When the concentration inside of a cell membrane exceeds its capacity to hold the substance.

What is the definition of a hypertonic environment?

When more water is outside the cell than inside the cell.

What does the bubble in the photosynthesis lab represent?

O2 is out of the plant

What was the independent variable in the photosynthesis lab?

The amount of light

What was the dependent variable inside of the photosynthesis lab?

The amount of o2 produced

What happened to the bubbles when the elodea leaf was moved to a greater distance away from the light?

O2 production decreased

Which type of cells (parenchyma, sclerenchyma, or epidermal) would a peach pit most likely contain?

What are some differences between prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells?

Eukaryotes have membrane-bound organelles


Eukaryotic cells are bigger and have a nucleus


Eukaryotic cells have linear DNA




Prokaryotic have a nucleoid


Prokaryotic cells have circular DNA


Prokaryotic cells do not contain a nucleus

Which type of cells have thin walls that allow free transfer of materials between membranes of adjacent cells?

... plasma membrane

What is the total magnification of the scan, low, high power lens of the microscopes in our lab?

Scanning: ocular equals 4X, objective lens equals 10x and the total magnification is 40X



Lower power lens

Objective lens equals 10x


Total magnification equals 100 x



High power lens


Ocular lens equals a 40x


Objective lens equals 10x

Ocular lens equals 100 x


Objective lens equals 10x


Total magnification equals 1000x

What are some of the main advantages of a dissecting microscope?

That we can look at thicker larger objects

Is one that does not receive treatment so that we can compare

How do you calibrate the ocular micrometer?

1) place the stage micrometer scale slide on the stage.


2) using the mechanical stage controls, line up the left hand zero end of the scale with the left hand zero end of the 2 mm stage scale.


3)measure the length of the entire ocular scale on the scanning objective lens, the low power objective lens, the high power objective lens but not the oil immersion lens.


4)now you can use the ocular scale to measure the dimensions of the specimens you examine


5)simply line up the image of the specimen with the ocular scale by using the mechanical stage or by rotating the eye piece that holds the ocular scale. Then count the number of ocular units along the dimension of the specimen and multiply the value by the ocular unit for that particular power... For example... If the object appears to be at 2 o u long when you observe it on high power, and if yourcalibration showed 100u to be equal to 25 micrometers on high power, then the objects length is 2 o u x 25 micro meters or fifty micrometers long.
