L12 Unique plant structures: vacuoles and plastids

Descripción

• Describe the structure and functions of the vacuole. • Describe the structure and function of the chloroplasts. • Summarise plastid development and functions. • Outline how cellular functions are partitioned within the cell, using the chloroplast as an example.

Resumen del Recurso

Pregunta 1

Pregunta
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.
Respuesta
  • tonoplast
  • small
  • one

Pregunta 2

Pregunta
Choose the correct statements about vacuoles.
Respuesta
  • 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.

Pregunta 3

Pregunta
Secondary metabolites are growth associated.
Respuesta
  • True
  • False

Pregunta 4

Pregunta
Which of these is not a primary metabolite?
Respuesta
  • Inorganic ions
  • Organic acids
  • Sugars
  • Lipids
  • Amino acids
  • Proteins
  • All of these are primary metabolites.

Pregunta 5

Pregunta
Choose the incorrect statement about secondary metabolites.
Respuesta
  • 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.

Pregunta 6

Pregunta
The vacuole can degrade macromolecules and organelles in a process very similar to the lysosomes found in plant cells.
Respuesta
  • True
  • False

Pregunta 7

Pregunta
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.
Respuesta
  • positive
  • negative
  • uptake
  • loss
  • bursting
  • loss of rigidity
  • Loss
  • Gain

Pregunta 8

Pregunta
Chloroplast DNA (ctDNA) is linear.
Respuesta
  • True
  • False

Pregunta 9

Pregunta
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.
Respuesta
  • Chloroplasts
  • Chromoplasts
  • Leucoplasts
  • Proplastids

Pregunta 10

Pregunta
Light reactions take place in the stroma. Dark reactions/the Calvin Cycle take place in the thylakoids/Granum.
Respuesta
  • True
  • False

Pregunta 11

Pregunta
The oxygen released from photosynthesis comes from CO2 in the Calvin cycle.
Respuesta
  • True
  • False
