Front

What is the endoplasmic reticulum and its types?

Back

The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is an organelle involved in protein and lipid synthesis; it has two types: rough ER (with ribosomes) and smooth ER (without ribosomes).

Front

What is the role of vacuoles in plant cells?

Back

Vacuoles are storage organelles that hold various substances, including nutrients, waste products, and water.

Front

What is the function of chloroplasts?

Back

Chloroplasts are organelles in plant cells that conduct photosynthesis, converting light energy into chemical energy.

Front

What is the cell membrane and its importance?

Back

The cell membrane is a protective barrier that regulates what enters and exits the cell, maintaining homeostasis.
