- Coral reefs, bleaching, and climate change What part of the dinoflagellate (the algae) is actually damaged by excess energy? 2. When stimulated by too much energy (light or heat), what does the algae begin to produce? And how does this product impact the coral polyp?arrow_forward1.

How does the shape of a plant cell differ from that of an animal cell? Why do think there is a difference in shape? 3. What is the function of the chloroplasts?

- Evolution of Photosynthetic Organisms Algae are autotrophs and can have photosynthesis, however, evolutionary evidence suggests that plants shared a common ancestor with only green algae and are closest relatives of Charophytes. What evidences support this statement? How an algal cell is different from fungal cells, even if both are eukaryotes? Why slime mold is a protist not a fungus even if it does not have chloroplast? Renlyarrow_forwardZOOM 5. Chloroplasts are organelles that are found in plant cells. Some plant tissue contains cells with large numbers of chloroplasts, while other tissue contains few chloroplasts. Based on the function of chloroplasts, which type of plant tissue is likely to contain cells with many chloroplasts?arrow_forward1. Under a microscope, you probably noticed that all of the onions cells were roughly the same shape whereas the squamous cells from your buccal cavity, while roundish, may have been folded or bent. What do you think keeps all of the plant cells the same shape? A) Vaucole B) Cell membrane C) Chloroplasts D) Cell wall 2. When stained with methylene blue (buccal cell) and haemalum acid (onion cell), the nuclei were the only cellular structures that stained. This has to do with the stains being cationic (positively charged). What charge do you think the nuclei are in order to be stained? A) Positive (cationic) B) Negative (anionic) C) Neutral D) Hypotonic 3. FILL IN THE BLACKS USING THE BOLDED BRACKET OPTIONS: Observable physical differences between the three types of simple epithelial tissue are that squamous epithelial cells are _________ (flat, equal, more, less, cube, column, buccal, wider), whereas cuboidal epithelial cells have _____ (flat, equal, more, less, cube, column,…arrow_forward
