Q

Does Active Transport need energy?

A

Yes

17
Q

What is ‘Turgor’

A

When water moves into a Plant Cell and builds up pressure until no more water can enter.
It does not burst.

18
Q

What is ‘Plasmolysis’

A

When water escapes a Plant Cell until it dies.

19
Q

How do you get ‘Volume’

A

Length x Width x Height

20
Q

How do you get ‘Surface Area’

A

Number of Sides x Width x Height

21
Q

How do you calculate ‘Magnification’?

A

Magnification = Image Size / Real Size

22
Q

What is the Function of the ‘Nucleus’

A

Controls the activities of the cell and contains the genetic material

23
Q

What is the Function of the ‘Cytoplasm’

A

Liquid gel where the Chemical Reactions take place

24
Q

What is the Function of the ‘Cell Membrane’

A

Controls what enters and leaves the cell such as Glucose and Mineral ions

25
Q

What is the Function of the ‘mitochondria’

A

Where Aerobic respiration takes place and releases energy, Powerhouse of the cell.

26
Q

What is the Function of the ‘ribosomes’

A

Where Protein Synthesis takes place.

27
Q

What is the Function of the ‘Chloroplasts’

A

Contains Chlorophyll which lets them make energy through Photosynthesis

28
Q

What is the Function of the ‘Large Permenant Vacuole’

A

It is used as storage for Sap, Nutrients and water. Also it helps with the structure of cell

29
Q

What is the Function of the ‘Cell Wall’

A

To support the structure of the Cell
