Chapter:7 Cell Structure

  1. What are 4 points on the cell wall in a plant cell?
    • Fully permeable- allows gases and liquids to pass through it.
    • Composed of a complex polysaccharide called cellulose.
    • Provides strength, protection and support.
    • Helps plant maintain turgidity.
  2. What is the permeability of the cell wall?
    The cell wall is fully permeable to allow gases and liquids to pass through it.
  3. What is the cell wall composed of?
    Composed of a complex polysaccharide called cellulose.
  4. What does the cell wall provide?
    Provides strength, protection and support.
  5. The cell wall helps maintain what?
    Helps plant maintain turgidity.
  6. What are 3 points on vacuoles?
    • They’re membrane bound spaces within the cytoplasm.
    • They’re involved in storage and excretion.
    • Stores food, water, minerals, vitamins and wastes.
  7. What are vacuoles?
    They’re membrane bound spaces within the cytoplasm and are involved in storage and excretion.
  8. What does vacuoles store?
    Stores food, water, minerals, vitamins and wastes.
  9. What are the 4 differences between Animal and Plant Cells?
    • 1. Plant- has cell walls.
    • Animal- has no cell walls.
    • 2. Plant- has chloroplasts therefore chlorophyll.
    • Animal- no chloroplasts, no chlorophyll.
    • 3. Plant- vacuoles are larger, more permanent.
    • Animal- few, if any, small, temporary vacuoles.
    • 4. Plant- store carbs as starch
    • Animal - store carbs as glycogen.
  10. What are 2 types of cells?
    Prokaryotic cells and Eukaryotic cells.
  11. What type of cell has bacteria?
    Prokaryotic cell
  12. What type of cell has humans?
    Eukaryotic cells
  13. What are prokaryotic cells?
    Prokaryotic cells have a tough outer cell wall and gave no membrane-bound nucleus or membrane-bound organelles.
  14. What are eukaryotic cells?
    Eukaryotic cells have membrane-bound nucleus and organelles.
