BOTANY LAB: PLANT STRUCTURES Flashcards
DEVELOPERS OF CELL THEORY
- He stated all plants are composed of cells
MATTHIAS SCHLEIDEN
DEVELOPERS OF CELL THEORY
- He stated that all animals are also composed pf cells—thus claimed all living things are composed of cells
THEODOR SCHWANN
DEVELOPERS OF CELL THEORY
- He stated all cells came from pre-existing cells
RUDOLF VIRCHOW
All organisms are made up of cells
CELL THEORY
The basic unit of structure and function in all organisms
CELLS
All cells come from cells that already exist
CELL THEORY
- Have the same basic eukaryotic organization
- At maturity when they become specialized, it may differ greatly from one another in their structure and functions
PLANT CELL
- Contains many organelles with specific functions
- Enclosed by a membrane which defines their boundaries
- Has a Cell wall
PLANT CELL
PLANT CELL VS ANIMAL CELL
- Cell wall
PLANT CELL
PLANT CELL VS ANIMAL CELL
- Plastid
PLANT CELL
PLANT CELL VS ANIMAL CELL
- One large central vacuole, taking up 90% of the cell volume
PLANT CELL
PLANT CELL VS ANIMAL CELL
- One or more small vacuoles
ANIMAL CELL
PLANT CELL VS ANIMAL CELL
- Rectangular shape
PLANT CELL
PLANT CELL VS ANIMAL CELL
- Has a Round shape
ANIMAL CELL
PLANT CELL VS ANIMAL CELL
- Some has glyoxysomes
PLANT CELLS
PLANT CELL VS ANIMAL CELL
- Centrioles are only present in lower forms
PLANT CELL
PLANT CELL VS ANIMAL CELL
- Centrioles are always present
ANIMAL CELL
PLANT CELL VS ANIMAL CELL
- Lyoxysomes are usually not evident
PLANT CELL
PLANT CELL VS ANIMAL CELL
- Lyoxysomes occur in cytoplasm
ANIMAL CELL
PLANT CELL VS ANIMAL CELL
- Cell membrane + Cell wall
PLANT CELL
PLANT CELL VS ANIMAL CELL
- It only has Cell membrane
ANIMAL CELL
PLANT CELL VS ANIMAL CELL
- Has Chloroplasts
PLANT CELLS
PLANT CELL VS ANIMAL CELL
- Has no Chloroplast
ANIMAL CELL
CELL STRUCTURE AND FUNCTION
Function in plants:
- For protection
- For photosynthesis
- Defines cell shade
CELL WALL
CELL STRUCTURE AND FUNCTION
Composition:
- Cellulose
- Hemicellulose
- Held together by the Middle lamella
- Made of: Cellulose, Xyloglucan, Pectin, Proteins, Ca2+ ions, Lignin, Water, Other ions
CELL WALL
CELL STRUCTURE AND FUNCTION
- Main component of cell wall
CELLULOSE
CELL STRUCTURE AND FUNCTION
- A glue-like substance that holds cellulose fibrils together
HEMICELLULOSE
CELL STRUCTURE AND FUNCTION
- The cell walls are held together by
MIDDLE LAMELLA
CELL STRUCTURE AND FUNCTION
- The organic material that gives stiffness to fruit jellies
PECTIN
CELL STRUCTURE AND FUNCTION
- Proteins associated with sugar
GLYCOPROTEIN
CELL STRUCTURE AND FUNCTION
- Composed of cellulose microfibrils (embedded in lignin—a complex polymer)
SECONDARY CELL WALLS
CELL STRUCTURE AND FUNCTION
- Responsible for giving cell’s shape and where most chemical processes take place
CYTOPLASM
CELL STRUCTURE AND FUNCTION
- Clear in color and has a gel-like appearance
- It helps to move materials, such as hormones, around the cell and dissolves cellular waste
CYTOPLASM
CELL STRUCTURE AND FUNCTION
- Controls cell metabolism including signal pathways, intercellular receptor “Cell jello”
CYTOPLASM
CELL STRUCTURE AND FUNCTION
2 Primary parts:
- Central area of the cytoplasm that contains the organelles
ENDOPLASM
CELL STRUCTURE AND FUNCTION
2 Primary parts:
- More gel-like peripheral portion of the cytoplasm of a cells
ECTOPLASM
