Q. What happens if chloroplast is absent in plants?
Answer: Plants would not be able to perform photosynthesis. And since the oxygen in our atmosphere is there because the photosynthesis process in plants yields it as a “waste product”, not having chloroplasts in plants would also cause the eventual death of all animals.
Q. What will happen if chloroplast is removed from the cell?
Chloroplasts are the organelles which gives color to the plant and helps the leaves to capture the sunlight to perform the process of photosynthesis. Therefore if chloroplasts are taken out of the leaves then the plant will not be able to do its photosynthesis. As a result, the plant will die.
Q. How would a plant cell respond if the chloroplasts were removed the cell would?
What will happen if plants do not have chloroplasts in them? In a nutshell: plants would not be able to perform photosynthesis.
Q. What happened to the cells soaked in salt water?
What happens to the cells as the salt water flows under the cover slip? The salt water is a hypertonic solution, thus water will move out of the cell. As water moves out of the cells there is a loss of turgor pressure and the plasma membranes detach from the cell walls as the cells shrink.
Q. Why do elodea cells shrink in salt water?
When the salt solution is added, the salt ions outside the cell membrane cause the water molecules to leave the cell through the cell membrane causing it to shrink into a blob in the centre of the cell wall. The movement of water molecules is called osmosis.
Q. What does a salt solution do to cells?
Salt Sucks, Cells Swell Water in cells moves toward the highest concentration of salt. If there is more salt in a cell than outside it, the water will move through the membrane into the cell, causing it to increase in size, swelling up as the water fills the cell in its imperative to combine with the salt.
Q. What cells do plant cells have that animal cells don t?
Animal cells have centrosomes (or a pair of centrioles), and lysosomes, whereas plant cells do not. Plant cells have a cell wall, chloroplasts, plasmodesmata, and plastids used for storage, and a large central vacuole, whereas animal cells do not.
Q. What is the difference between plant cells and animal cells?
A plant cell contains a large, singular vacuole that is used for storage and maintaining the shape of the cell. In contrast, animal cells have many, smaller vacuoles. Plant cells have a cell wall, as well as a cell membrane. Animal cells simply have a cell membrane, but no cell wall.
Q. Do both plant and animal cells have vesicles?
It is actually a stack of membrane-bound vesicles that are important in packaging macromolecules for transport elsewhere in the cell. They are common in animal cells, but rare in plant cells. Vesicles are found in different kinds of cells, like archaea, bacteria, and plant and animal cells.
Q. Is Amyloplast in plant and animal cells?
Amyloplasts are a type of plastid, double-enveloped organelles in plant cells that are involved in various biological pathways. Amyloplasts are specifically a type of leucoplast, a subcategory for colorless, non-pigment-containing plastids.
Q. Is ER in plant and animal cells?
Endoplasmic reticulum is an organelle found in both eukaryotic animal and plant cells. It often appears as two interconnected sub-compartments, namely rough ER and smooth ER.
