Frage 1
Frage
The membrane of the vacuole is called the [blank_start]tonoplast[blank_end]. A young plant cell will have many [blank_start]small[blank_end] vacuoles, while a mature plant cell will typically have [blank_start]one[blank_end] big vacuole.
Frage 2
Frage
Choose the correct statements about vacuoles.
Antworten
-
They are produced by the Golgi and associated endoplasmic reticulum.
-
They regulate cell turgor.
-
They store ribosomes for protein synthesis.
-
They store primary and secondary metabolites.
-
They contain hydrolytic digestive enzymes.
Frage 3
Frage
Secondary metabolites are growth associated.
Frage 4
Frage
Which of these is not a primary metabolite?
Frage 5
Frage
Choose the incorrect statement about secondary metabolites.
Antworten
-
Latex is a secondary metabolite used to deter insects.
-
Secondary metabolites can be for defense or for signalling.
-
Raphides (crystallised calcium oxalate) are a secondary metabolite used to deter larvae.
-
Aloe contains latex in vacuoles.
-
None of these are incorrect.
-
Vincristine and vinblastine are secondary metabolites used to attract pollinators.
-
Anthocyanin is a secondary metabolite which is a pigment.
Frage 6
Frage
The vacuole can degrade macromolecules and organelles in a process very similar to the lysosomes found in plant cells.
Frage 7
Frage
High concentrations of solutes in the vacuole give it a [blank_start]positive[blank_end] osmotic potential. This results in water [blank_start]uptake[blank_end] via osmosis as water moves freely through the tonoplast. The cell wall enables water uptake without [blank_start]bursting[blank_end], creating turgor pressure. [blank_start]Loss[blank_end] of turgor pressure results in wilting but will generally not damage the plant in the long term.

Frage 8
Frage
Chloroplast DNA (ctDNA) is linear.
Frage 9
Frage
Match the plastids to their function:
[blank_start]Chloroplasts[blank_end] carry out photosynthesis.
[blank_start]Chromoplasts[blank_end] manufacture and store pigments.
[blank_start]Leucoplasts[blank_end] store starch/assimilates.
[blank_start]Proplastids[blank_end] can differentiate into other plastids.
Antworten
-
Chloroplasts
-
Chromoplasts
-
Leucoplasts
-
Proplastids
Frage 10
Frage
Light reactions take place in the stroma. Dark reactions/the Calvin Cycle take place in the thylakoids/Granum.
Frage 11
Frage
The oxygen released from photosynthesis comes from CO2 in the Calvin cycle.
