Answer 2

True

Question 3

is the outermost covering of the plant cell. It is the main feature of the plant cells.

Answer 3

Cell Wall

Question 4

another name for cell membrane.

Answer 4

Plasma membrane

Question 5

it is the outer lining of the cell inside the cell wall.

Answer 5

Cell membrane

Question 6

is the gel-like matrix inside the cell membrane which constitues all other cell organelles.

Answer 6

Cytosol or cytoplasm

Question 7

is the control center of the cell. It is a membrane bound structure which contains the hereditary material of the cell - the DNA.

Answer 7

Nucleus

Question 14

composed of amino acids and sugars. It provides structure and protection to the cell wall against bacteria.

Answer 14

Peptidoglycan

Question 15

serves as the cell’s structural support against fungi.

Answer 15

Chitin

Question 16

extension of the cell. A hair-forming cell on the epidermis of the plant root.

Answer 16

Root Hairs

Question 17

found inside of the chloroplast. It is a colorless fluid surrounded by grana (light-dependent reactions take place here).

Answer 17

Stroma

Question 18

Answer 18

Thykaloid

Question 19

green pigment responsible for capturing light energy during photosynthesis.

Answer 19

Chlorophyll
