Chapter 33, Problem 14TYU
Summary Introduction
To sketch: A cell preparing to expand; indicate the orientation of the cellulose microfibrils, and indicate the direction of subsequent cell elongation using a double-headed arrow.
Introduction: Plants are the eukaryotic group of organisms that continue their growth and differentiation till their death. Meristematic cells present in their root and shoot tips are primarily responsible for this unlimited growth process.

Provide a detailed description of the role of "Plant cell organelle #12" in cells.
Cell motility has been described as being like the motion of tank treads. At the leading edge, actin filaments form rapidly into bundles and networks that make protrusions and move the cell forward. At the rear, cell adhesions are broken and the tail end of the cell is brought forward. What provides the traction for moving cells? How does cell-body translocation happen? How are cell adhesions released as cells move forward?

- B. TYPICAL PLANT LEAF CELL (Western Pond Weed): Pond weed is a great plant for studying plant cells, because the leaves are only two cells thick and it is easy to make mounts and view the cells under the microscope. Use the "close the book" method to make a wet slide of one pond weed leaf. The instructor will demonstrate the procedure. Place the slide on a compound scope and use the "stair- step" procedure to focus on a few cells of the leaf at high power. You should definitely be able to see cell walls and chloroplasts. Rarely, you may see a nucleus. In some of the cells, you may notice that the chloroplasts are moving. They seem to cycle around the center of the cell. This is called cyclosis, and is caused by the cytoplasm streaming around the vacuole carrying some organelles with it. Draw and label ONE cell on the provided drawing area of the next page and label using the labels below: CELL WALL, CHLOROPLASTS, VACUOLE, NUCLEUS (if visible) CPID 810186 10arrow_forwardftft: Which of the following correctly describes the structure and function of the cell wall in plants? The cell wall is composed mainly of cellulose. It allows for fluid movement of the cell. The cell wall is composed mainly of collagen. It supports the cell, allowing it to maintain a rigid shape.
