Q

Why do we use microscopes?

A

To look at small things up close

16
Q

Difference between light microscopes and electron microscopes

A

Electron microscopes use electrons to light up, and no living organisms can be examined.

Light microscopes use light to light up, and can use living organisms.

17
Q

Why is stain added when viewing objects?

A

So you can see the part you are trying to observe

18
Q

Why is a rough endoplasmic reticulum bumpy?

A

They have ribosomes attached to them

19
Q

Difference between microtubules and microfilaments?

A

Microtubules are hollow

20
Q

What organelles would a cell need to digest bacteria?

A

Lysosomes

21
Q

What organelle would a cell need to make energy?

A

Mitochondria

22
Q

“Not all cells have the same number of the organelles within them” explain statement

A

Different cells have different functions

23
Q

Differences in cilia and flagella

A

Cilia’s have short hair and lots of them.

Flagella’s have long hair and 1 or 2 of them.

24
Q

3 differences between plant and animal cells

A

Plant cells have cell walls

Plant cells have larger vacuoles

Plant cells have chloroplast

25
Q

Where is DNA located?

A

Nucleus

26
Q

Why do plant cells need larger vacuoles than animal cell

A

So they can store more water to keep for food

27
Q

What is each cell part called?

A

Organelle

28
Q

What is a chromosome?

A

A chromosome is a piece of genetic material bundled together.

Usually 23 pairs in a human body.

29
Q
