Chloroplast

(green) is the color most reflected or transmitted by the pigment, chlorophyll a. (pg. 192) D. List three pigments that contribute to primary production. Indicate in which entities you find those pigments. There are three major pigments in chloroplast that contribute to the primary production: Chlorophyll a, Chlorophyll b and Carotenoids. (pg. 192) ● Chlorophyll a: Most abundant pigment in plants. Chlorophyll a absorbs light with wavelengths of 430nm (violet-blue) and 662nm (red). It…

Cytoplasm- The jellylike material that makes up much of a cell inside the cell membrane, and, in eukaryotic cells, surrounds the nucleus. The organelles of eukaryotic cells, such as mitochondria, the endoplasmic reticulum, and (in green plants) chloroplasts, are contained in the cytoplasm. Cilium- a short, microscopic, hairlike vibrating structure. Cilia occur in large numbers on the surface of certain cells, either causing currents in the surrounding fluid, or, in some protozoans and other…

Running head: DIFFERENCES OF ANIMAL CELLS VS. PLANT CELLS Differences of Animal Cells Vs. Plant Cells Hosheni Lakeraj Hudson County Community College DIFFERENCES OF ANIMAL CELLS VS. PLANT CELLS A plant cell is a eukaryotic cell, which is basically a membrane-bound nucleus. The DNA is located in a plant cell which is contained in the nucleus. Along with having a nucleus, plant cells have membrane-bound organelles. These organelles are accountable for constructing hormones and…

appropriateness of light and electron microscopes for different purposes. (6) A light microscope can be used for objects as small as 200nm, they can resolve bacteria but cannot resolve viruses. They can reveal structures such as mitochondria, chloroplasts and the nucleus. Light microscopes are commonly…

and the magical energy of light. The Princess already had water, but she didn’t have the Carbon dioxide or the magical light energy. The old wizard gave her a magical bottle that could catch Carbon dioxide right out of the air, and his magical chloroplast staff which could turn the sunlight into energy to make her glucose. So the…

Since this organism is multi-cellular and it’s made from eukaryotic cells, the Domain of this organism of Eukarya. This organism is made up of animal cell, i.e. there is no cell wall, no central vacuole, and there are no chloroplasts, which means that it falls under the Animalia group in Kingdom. By definition, Chordata have a notochord. The dingo has a notochord, which make it fall under the Chordata in the Phylum category. Moreover, Chordatas are deuterostomes, which means…

What are the processes involved in cellular respiration? How do enzymes perform an important role in the mitochondria? How does the mitochondria use chemiosmotic gradients? How did the mitochondria evolve? The mitochondria are organelles found within eukaryotic cells, that produce energy for the cell. There are many chemical processes and important molecules involved in the mitochondria. Cellular respiration is the chemical process that makes the energy needed for the cell in the form of ATP.…

Bats Bats, the blind and bloodthirsty monsters that live o ff of the blood of its prey are a very essential part in today's ecological system. Bats are found all around the world and although Hollywood and human folklore have portrayed these furry mammals as bloodthirsty monsters, of the 1200 di ff erent species only three are bloodsucking. Most bats on the other hand focus their diets on insects, fruits, and small animals i.e. frogs and lizards. Insectivores bats, who as the name…

blue. It was amazing to see our own check cells in the microscope, because we could even see the nucleus of the cell. Then, we got a piece of elodea leaf and made another wet mount slide. We could see the cell walls of the plant cells, and the chloroplasts moving because of cytoplasmic streaming. We knew that both were eukaryotic cells because they were both multicellular. Lastly, we looked at a prepared slide of three different colored…

In the Light Independent Reaction takes place in both light and dark, this all occurs in the chloroplasts. The formula for Light Independent Reaction is 6CO2 + ATP → Glucose + 6H2O. In lab the class performed a couple of different experiments the one that is going to be observed is the effects of carbon dioxide concentration of photosynthesis. The…
