2.1 Organisms Are Made Up Of Cells Flashcards
Know that the basic unit of living organisms is the cell Know that all cells have certain features in common, but that there are differences between plant and animal cells Understand that the study of cells requires the use of a microscope (21 cards)
both plant and animal cells have
cell surface membrane
cytoplasm
nucleus
plant cells have
cellulose cell wall
vacuole
chloroplast
magnification =?
measured length ÷ actual length
stain for animal cell
methylene blue
stain for plant cell
iodine solution
secretory vesicles
(animal)
contain cell products eg hormones & enzymes
> in animal cells than plant
animal cells cytoplasm
denser bc more organelles, dissolved substances
animal cells vacuole
small, temporary
involved with excretion/digestion
glycogen
(animal) storage form of carbs
animal cell shape
irregular bc no cellulose wall
animal cell size
25 micrometers
animal cell features relate to
heterotrophic nutrition, high metabolism
plant cells features relate to
autotrophic nutrition
chloroplasts
contain chlorophyll pigment, enzymes for glucose production during photosynthesis
plant cells vacuole
large, permanent
contains necc water for turgor pressure
starch
plants - carb storage form
cellulose cell wall
structural support, prevent damage fr osmosis
freely permewbk
cell surface membrane
controls entry exit
cell surface membrane
controls entry exit
nucleus
DNA - (genes on chromosomes)
cytoplasm
contains H2O, dissolved substances
organelles -> chemical reactions
;> ribosomes - protein
;> mitochondria - energy by respiration
