Plant Cells Flashcards
What is the basic foundation of life?
Cell
Plants cells are E_____ Cells
Eukaryotic
It is the supporter and shapes the plant cell and collectively protects protoplast.
Cell Wall
It is composed of a number of polysaccharides,
commonly cellulose.
Cell Primary Wall
It is mainly made up of lignin
Cell Secondary Wall
All of the plant cell enclosed by a cell wall.
Protoplast
The protoplast is composed of C______ and N_____
Cytoplasm and Nucleus
One of the most important component of plant cells.
Nucleus
The center of control and genetic
information.
Nucleus
It is inside the nucleus and consists of DNA, RNA, and proteins.
Chromatin
It is the director of the functions of the cell
Chromatin
It is inside the nucleus and makes the ribosomes.
Nucleolus
Consists of various organelles
Cytoplasm
The Nucleus is surrounded by a double membrane with small openings called the _____
Nuclear pores
Organelles are distributed in the
Cytosol
Consists of a large amount of water, proteins, ions, and other organic molecules.
Cytosol
They make up the cytoskeleton that helps support and shape the cell as well and the movement of the cell.
Microtubules and Microfilaments
It is the powerhouse of the cell and energy storehouse
Mitochondria
The inner membrane with numerous infoldings is called the ____
Cristae
The compartment enclosed by the inner membrane is called the _____
Matrix
What are the cellular structures found within the cell, distributed within the cytosol of the cytoplasm?
Organelles
What is a network of membranous channels throughout the cytoplasm?
Endoplasmic Reticulum (ER)
Portions of ER that contains ribosomes are called _____
Rough Endoplasmic Reticulum (ER)
Contain no ribosomes are called __________
Smooth Endoplasmic Reticulum (ER)
Composed of RNA and protein, sites of protein synthesis.
Ribosomes
Mailroom/ Functions in the storage, modification, and packaging of proteins that are produced by the ER.
Golgi Apparatus
Small, spherical organelles in which various enzymatic reactions occur
Microbodies
Plant cells can contain two types of microbodies, P____ and G____
Peroxisomes and Glyoxisomes
Peroxisomes are for _____
Photosynthesis
Glyoxisomes are for _____
conversion of stored fats to sugars in
seeds.
