Cellulose
What’s a primary compound
Found in all plants and are things like carbohydrates, lipids, proteins, nucleic acids
What’s a secondary compound
Found in some plants, plant parts, and stages of development and consist of alkaloids, terpenoids, and phenolics
Chromoplasts
-Accumulate pigments (carotenoids) other than chlorophyll
-colors in flowers and fruits
Leukoplasts
-Lack color
-common in epidermal cells and storage tissue (apples, onions)
Central vacuole function
Maintain a hypertonic environment which brings in water and other nutrients/solutes
Middle lamella plus thin primary walls
Pit membrane
Maintain cytoplasmic continuity
Plasmodesmata
Mostly pectins
Middle lamellae
Cytoskeleton that guide golgi vehicles to cell plate
Phragmoplast
Pectins, glycoproteins, cellulose and hemicellulose
Primary cell walls
Few or no pectin or glycoproteins
Secondary cell wall
No secondary cell walls present
Pit fields
Strands of ER
Desmotubules
Which researcher found that a sprig of mint could restore air burned by candle
Priestly
Which researcher suggested the general rxn for photosynthesis
Van niel
Which researcher found that the mass gained by a plant did not come from the soil
Van helmont
A molecule that absorbs light
Pigment
Pigments are found on what membrane of chloroplast
Thylakoid
Light independent rxns take place in
Stroma
In c3 plants light independent rxns go through what cycle
Calvin cycle
Enzyme that acts as carboxylase and oxygenase
Rubisco
In low co2 environments rubsico adds oxygen to ribulose 1,5 bisphosphate in a wasteful process called
Photorespiration
To avoid photorespiration some c4 plants synthesize a 4 carbon sugar and transport it to the
Bundle sheath cells
Some c4 plants undergo a process that completes the light independent rxns in same cells but rather fix carbon to a 4 carbon sugar at night, this process is
CAM synthesis
An ancestor and all its descendants
Monophyletic group
Common ancestry but not common function
Homologous structures
Characters present in all members
Synapomorphies
Ancestor but not all of its descendants
Paraphyletic group
Simple=most likely
Principle of parsimony
Common function but arose independently
