Plant Tissue
What are the 2 main types of tissues in plants?
Meristematic and permanent
What organelle is a membrane that regulates what enters and leaves a plant cell?
Cell membrane
What are the two cell types?
Prokaryotic and Eukaryotic
What is the function of the Nucleus?
Control center for the cell, contains DNA
What is the function of the Golgi apparatus
Collect, modify, package and export chemicals
What type of tissue is found at the tips of roots and shoots and is responsible for growth in those areas?
Apical tissue
What is the jelly-like structure that fills the space in the cell?
cytoplasm
What is the main difference between Prokaryotes and Eukaryotes?
Prokaryotes have NO Nucleus and Eukaryotes DO!
Prokaryotes have NO internal organelles and Eukaryotes DO!
What are the function of Ribosomes?
Make proteins, can be found on ER to make rough ER
What organelle is used for storage of food, water, and waste
Vacuole
This type of tissue increases the girth or width of stems.
Lateral meristems
What is the purpose of the cell wall?
To support and protect the cell.
What are two examples of a Eukaryotic Cell?
Plant and Animal
Which organelle is the powerhouse of the cell and converts nutrients to energy?
Mitochondria
What is the function of the Vesicle?
Pouch used for transport within the cell and for export. Made by the Golgi apparatus.
The single layer of cells on the outside of roots, stems, leaves and flowers.
Epidermis
This organelle makes ribosomes.
Nucleolus
What organelles do plants have that animal cells don't?
Plant: Cell wall, and chloroplast
Which organelle makes and processes chemicals, and transports proteins throughout the cell
Endoplasmic Reticulum
What organelle contains pigments called chlorophyll and where photosynthesis takes place
Chloroplast
What are the 2 types of conductive tissue?
Xylem and phloem
What 3 organelles provide support for the plant cell?
Cell wall, cytoskeleton, and vacuole
What are the smallest units of life?
Cells
What is the function of Lysosomes?
Breaks down large foods and dead materials using digestive chemicals.
This structure is made of tubules and filaments that give the cell its shape.
Cytoskeleton
