Q

What does the vacuole do?

A

It is filled with locked up chemical energy (cell sap). It also provides an almost skeletal structure throughout the plant and provides stability.

Q

What do the Pili do?

A

They are used to attach the cell to surfaces.

17
Q

When observing a cell through a microscope what formula is used to calculate the real size?

A

Use the I AM triangle:
I
A M
I=Image size
A= actual size
M= Magnification

18
Q

How to calculate the total magnification on a microscope?

A

Total= Eyepiece x objective lens

19
Q

How much magnification is there on a light microscope?

A

Eye piece= x10
Objective lens:
low= x4
medium= x10
high= x40

20
Q

Fill in the blanks

21
Q

What is Eukaryotic cell?

A

-has a nucleus
-bigger and more complex
-evolved later
-single or multicellular

22
Q

What is a prokaryotic cell?

A

-no nucleus
-smaller and simple
-Older
-single cell

23
Q

What is a Hypertonic solution?

A

Strong sugar solution
low water concentration

24
Q

What is a Hypotonic solution?

A

Weak sugar solution
high water concentration

25
What is an Isotonic solution?
Equal parts sugar and water
26
What does a Hypertonic solution do to a cell?
-Water moves out, -cell gets smaller -cell gets lighter -Turns Turgid
27
What does a Hypotonic solution do to a cell?
-Water moves in -Cell gets bigger -Cell gets heavier -Bursts (lysis)
28
What does a Isotonic solution do to a cell?
-Water moves in and out -Cell stays the same size -Cell stays the same weight
29
Name 2 differences between light and electronic microscopes
-Electron uses electrons whereas light microscopes use light waves. -Max mag on a light microscope is x400 whereas on an electron microscope is x2000
30
How big is ____ in standard form: -Millimeter -micrometer -Nanometer
-Millimeter= 1 x 10(-3) -micrometer= 1 x 10 (-6) -nanometer= 1 x 10 (-9)
31
On a microscope what is meant by the object?
The real object that is being observed
32
On a microscope what is meant by the image?
The picture that you can see when you see when you look through the eyepiece
33
What is meant by magnification?
To produce an image of an object at a larger scale
34
What is meant by resolution?
So you can see clearer
