Biology Section 4-4 Review: Unique Features of Plant Cells (mom)

The end products of photosynthesis include

sugars

A central vacuole forms from

the fusion of smaller vacuoles

Label each part of the figure in the spaces provided. This diagram represents a typical plant cell.

a. Golgi Apparatus b. Cell wall c. Central Vacuole d. Nucleus e. Nucleolus f. Mitochondria g. Ribosome h. Chloroplast I. Rough Endoplasmic Reticulum

Rigid structure that surrounds the cell membrane and provides support to the cell

Cell wall

What are plant cell walls made of?

Cellulose and enzymes

Large, fluid-filled organelle that stores water, enzymes, metabolic wastes, and other materials

Central vacuole

Green pigment that is present in most plant cells, that gives plants their characteristic green color

Chlorophyll

Organelle of plant cells that contains specific substances and performs specific functions for the cells

Plastid

What is the function of plant cell walls?

Support and protect the plant

How are secondary cell walls different from primary cell walls?

The growth of the primary cell wall occurs in one direction, and the secondary cell wall is very strong, but can no longer expand.

Bacteria have a region called a nucleoid, in which their genetic material is located. Why, then, are bacteria classified as prokaryotes?

They lack a nucleus and membrane-bound organelles is why they are classifies as prokaryotes.

What is the appearance of a plant cell when water is plentiful?

Thicker than usual

Membrane system found within chloroplasts that contains the components for photosynthesis

Thylakoids

Which of the following organelles is found in plant cells but not in animal cells?

chloroplast

Thylakoids are located

inside the inner membrane of a chloroplast

A cell that contains a cell wall, chloroplasts, and a central vacuole is a

plant cell
