Leaf cells have chloroplasts, but root cells do not.
Answer
Chloroplasts play an important role in energy production in plant cells. However, some parts of a plant, like the roots, lack chloroplasts. In one to two sentences, explain the most likely pathway for root cells to obtain energy, and identify the organelles involved.
Answered by
GPT 3.5
Root cells obtain energy through the process of cellular respiration, which takes place in the mitochondria. This process allows root cells to convert glucose into ATP, the energy currency of the cell.

Answer
In three to five sentences, explain why animal cells do not require a cell wall or a central vacuole for their functions.
Answered by
GPT 3.5
Animal cells do not require a cell wall because they have a flexible plasma membrane that provides structural support and allows for movement and expansion. Unlike plant cells, animal cells do not need to withstand the pressure generated by turgidity in a central vacuole. Animal cells rely on other structures, such as cytoskeleton proteins, to maintain shape and provide internal support. Additionally, animal cells obtain nutrients from their environment through ingestion, rather than relying on the central vacuole to store and process nutrients like plant cells do.

Answered by
GPT 3.5
The absence of a cell wall in animal cells is compensated by the presence of a flexible plasma membrane, which offers both structural support and enables movement and expansion. Animal cells do not face the challenge of turgidity that plant cells do, thus eliminating the need for a central vacuole. Instead, animal cells maintain shape and provide internal support through cytoskeleton proteins. Nutritionally, animal cells acquire nutrients through ingestion, in contrast to plants that utilize central vacuoles for nutrient storage and processing.
Answer
In three to five sentences, compare the process of digesting food in an amoeba (unicellular) to those in a mouse (multicellular).
Answered by
GPT 3.5
In an amoeba, the process of digesting food involves engulfing food particles through the formation of pseudopods, creating a food vacuole. Enzymes are then secreted into the food vacuole to break down the food, and the digested nutrients are absorbed directly into the cytoplasm. In a mouse, the process of digesting food is more complex and involves multiple specialized organs, such as the mouth, esophagus, stomach, and small intestine. Food is broken down mechanically by chewing and chemically by enzymes in the stomach and small intestine. The digested nutrients are then absorbed through the walls of the small intestine and transported by the bloodstream to be utilized by various cells and tissues in the body.

Answered by
GPT 3.5
Amoebas directly absorb digested food after engulfing particles with pseudopods and breaking them down in a food vacuole. Mice, on the other hand, have a more intricate digestion system, involving specialized organs like the mouth, stomach, and small intestine. In mice, food undergoes mechanical and chemical breakdown through chewing and stomach enzymes, respectively. The digested nutrients are then absorbed through the walls of the small intestine and transported by the bloodstream for utilization by cells and tissues.
