What is the function of the cell membrane?

It decides what goes in and out of the cell?

200

In our carrot lab, were we modeling diffusion or osmosis?

osmosis

200
What does the plant take in during photosynthesis?

Carbon dioxide, water, and sunlight

300

Which system (passive or active) is made of a 2 liter bottle with water, medium, and a wick

Passive system
300
Why is a plant living?

1. Made of cells

2. Has DNA

3. Reacts to environment

4. Adapts to changes

300

Is the chloroplast in animal cells, plant cells, or both?

Plant cells only

300

What happened to the carrot in the saltwater?

It shrunk/loss mass

300

What is produced during cellular respiration?

How is the vacuole different in animal and plant cells?

In animal cells there are multiple vacuoles and they are small. In plant cells, there is just one large vacuole.

List the 2 organelles that are only in PLANT cells.

1. Chloroplast

2. Cell wall

500

Define osmosis

The movement of water molecules across a semi-permeable membrane from a high concentration to a low concentration

Describe how plants and animals benefit from photosynthesis and cellular respiration.

Plants produce oxygen for animals and animals produce carbon dioxide for plants.
