Plant Cells Flashcards
1
Q
Chloroplast- structure
Plant cell spesific
A
- double membrane
2
Q
Chloroplast- function
Plant cell spesific
A
- contains ribosomes needed for photosynthesis
- chlorophyll absorbs light molecules
- sight of photosynthesis
3
Q
Large permanent Vacuole -structure
Plant cell spesific
A
- single membrane (tonoplast)
- (tonoplast) –> partial permeable single membrane
- contains cell sap
4
Q
Large permanent Vacuole- function
Plant cell spesific
A
- makes plant rigid
- controls osmosis in cell
- pushes chloroplasts to edge of cell for more light
5
Q
Tonoplast
Plant cell spesific
A
Partally permiable single membrain
6
Q
Amyloplast- structure
Plant cell spesific
A
-double membrane bound sack
7
Q
Amyloplast- function
Plant cell spesific
A
- synthesis and storage of starch granules
8
Q
Plasmodesmata - structure
Plant cell spesific
A
- microscopic channels through the cell wall
9
Q
Plasmodesmata - function
Plant cell spesific
A
- transverse the cell wall - move through
- enables transport and communication between plant cells
10
