Comparing plant cells and animal cells Plant cells and animal cells share many of the same structures, but each type of cell also has unique structures.

Part A - Comparing plant cells and animal cells

Plant cells and animal cells share many of the same structures, but each type of cell also has unique structures. In this activity, you will indicate which cell structures are found only in plant cells, only in animal cells, or in both plant and animal cells.

Drag each cell structure to the appropriate bin. If a structure is found in both plant cells and animal cells, drag it to the "both" bin.

Expert Solution

Plant cell only: Chloroplast, cellulose cell wall, central vacuole (large central vacuole is present in matured plant cells, whereas animal cells contain slmaller vacuoles),

Animal cell only: Centrioles

Both: Mitochondrion, Endoplasmic reticulum, Golgi apparatus, cytoskeleton, nucleus, plasma membrane.

Application of the A&P of the Animal & Plant Cell: Relate the structures of the cell (animal or plant) to parts of some other concrete or abstract structure and explain how each structure connects. Example: Gas to a car is to the mitochondria of the cell. Explanation: Without gas a car would have no means of energy for power to move. Just as the mitochondria "powerhouse" provides energy for the cell. * Whatever structure chosen to compare the cell to...

Plant cells are different from animal cells in several ways. All plant cells have a cell wall during their entire existence. The cell wall has many different functions in different cell types. Compare and contrast between the two types of plant cell walls as to their chemical make up, shape, when they are formed, and morphological properties. Include all chemical components in the cell wall we discussed during lecture. Draw two figures showing how each of these cell walls are...

In many animal cells, the uptake of glucose into the cell occurs by a cotransport mechanism, in which glucose is cotransported with Na+ ions. Complete the diagram below using the following steps. Drag the pink labels to the pink targets, indicating the relative concentration at glucose inside and outside the cell. Drag the correct white target to the white target, indicating the direction that Na+ ions and glucose move through the cotransporter Drag the blue labels to complete the sentences...

The hormone ethylene has many different impacts on different parts of the same plant. The same is true for most plant hormones and yet essentially every cell in a plant would have the same alleles present. What are some of the factors that determine how a plant part might respond to a hormone that would allow different parts to respond differently?

Consider the following two half-cells. One half-cell (half-cell A) initially has 1.0 M each of 3PG and GAP; the other half-cell (half-cell B) initially has 1 M each of NAD+ and NADH. What is the value of ΔG°’ (in kcal/mol to the nearest tenths) when the two half-cells are connected by a salt bridge. To answer this question, you will need the standard reduction potential of NAD+ (which is given in your text), and you will need the standard reduction...
