2. Why are you going to remove any unopened flower buds on your Fast Plants?

3. What is the basic unit that composes living organisms?

4. Are the following structures present in prokaryotic cells only, plant cells only, animal cells only, or some combination of the above?

nucleus

cellulose cell wall

cell membrane

chloroplast

amyloplast

central vacuole

5. What is the function of the central vacuole?

6. What is the function of the amyloplasts in a plant cell?

7. What is the function of the chloroplast?

8. What is the function of the crystals in a plant cell?

9. What chemical will you use to stain the amyloplasts from the potato?

10. What chemical will you use to stain the cells from your cheek?

Ans 1:

The developing C fern sporophytes are located inside structure called sorus (sori).

Sori are found under the leaf surface. They store sporophyte and develop spores.

Ans 3: Cell is the basic unit that composes living organisms.

Ans 4:

Nucleus: both plant and animal cell.(combination)

Cellulose cell wall : plant cell

Cell membrane: prokaryote, plant cells, animal cells. (Combination)

Chloroplast,amyloplast , central vacuole: plant cells .

Ans 5: Function of central vacuole - storage of materials and waste, maintaining cellular internal pressure.

Ans 6: function of amyloplast- synthesis and storage of starch.

Ans 7: function of chloroplast- absorbs sunlight to derive energy for photosynthesis.
