What is the function of the Endoplasmic Reticulum in a cell?

Back

The Endoplasmic Reticulum is responsible for assembling lipid components of the cell membrane and synthesizing proteins.

Front

What is homeostasis in plant cells?

Back

Homeostasis is the ability of plant cells to maintain stable internal conditions, such as regulating water levels.

Front

Define diffusion in the context of cell biology.

Back

Diffusion is the process where solute particles move from an area of higher concentration to an area of lower concentration.

Front

What is the role of the Cell Membrane?

Back

The Cell Membrane acts as a barrier around all cells, regulating what enters and leaves the cell.

Front

What is the Cell Wall and its function?

Back

The Cell Wall is the outer layer of a plant cell that provides strength and support to the cell's structure.

Front

What is osmosis?

Back

Osmosis is the movement of water molecules through a selectively permeable membrane from an area of lower solute concentration to an area of higher solute concentration.

Front

What are ribosomes and their function?

Back

Ribosomes are cellular structures that synthesize proteins by translating messenger RNA.

Front

What is the Golgi Apparatus?

Back

The Golgi Apparatus is an organelle that modifies, sorts, and packages proteins and lipids for secretion or delivery to other organelles.

Front

Explain the function of chloroplasts in plant cells.

Back

Chloroplasts are organelles that conduct photosynthesis, converting light energy into chemical energy stored in glucose.

Front

What is the significance of the central vacuole in plant cells?

Back

The central vacuole stores nutrients and waste products, helps maintain turgor pressure, and plays a role in cell growth.
