Plant Cells Part 2 Quiz

Chlorophyll, found in chloroplasts, absorbs light energy for photosynthesis and reflects green light, giving plants their color.

Plant cells have a cell wall and chloroplasts, structures absent in animal cells, giving them rigidity and enabling photosynthesis.

The rough endoplasmic reticulum (RER) is covered with ribosomes and helps in protein synthesis and transport within the cell.

The cell membrane is made up of a phospholipid bilayer embedded with proteins, allowing flexibility and selective permeability.

The nucleus contains DNA, which carries the genetic blueprint for the cell’s structure, function, and reproduction.

Stomata are tiny pores on the leaf surface that regulate the exchange of gases like carbon dioxide, oxygen, and water vapor.

Lysosomes contain digestive enzymes that help break down waste and recycle cellular components.

The rigid cell wall provides structure and determines the fixed, box-like shape of plant cells.

Chlorophyll is found in the thylakoid membranes of chloroplasts, where the light-dependent reactions of photosynthesis occur.

Leucoplasts are colorless plastids found in storage tissues and are specialized for storing starch, lipids, or proteins.
