VII. Very short answer

 

1. What are the functions of cell wall in plant cell?

Plant cells have a cell wall around the cell membrane that is rigid. It maintains the shape of the cell. It provides support and protection to the cell content.

2. Which organelle uses energy from sunlight to make starch?

Chloroplasts in plant cells use energy from sunlight to make starch.

3. What are the main things in a nucleus?

Plant and animal cells have a nucleus inside the cytoplasm. It is surrounded by a nuclear envelope. One or two nucleolus and the chromatin body are present inside the nucleus.

4. What does cell membrane do?

Cell membranes are selectively permeable. They only allow certain substances to pass in and out of the cell.

5. Why lysosomes are known as scavengers of the cell?

Lysosomes are the main digestive compartments of the cell. They lyse (cause destruction and dissolution to) a cell. As they dissolve, destroy and digest old cells they are called scavengers of the cell.

6. Teacher said “A virus is not an organism” Do you agree with this statement or not? Explain Why?

(a) Viruses are not made out of cells. They can't keep themselves in a stable state. They don't grow. They can't make their own energy. They are more *android than real living organisms.

(b) Living things maintain *homeostasis. They have different levels of organization. Living things grow and reproduce living things. They use energy and respond to stimuli. They adapt to their environment. As these characteristics are absent in a virus, it is not regarded as an organism.

(*homeostatis - maintenance of metabolic equilibrium).

(*android - robots like human beings)

 

VIII. Give short Answer

 

1. Why the cell is very important for us?

Cells are the basic structural and functional units of all living organisms. All living things like plants and animals have cells. Without cells we cannot live. So the cell is very important for us.

2. Distinguish between the following pairs (i) Smooth ER and Rough ER (ii) Cell wall and cell membrane (iii) Chloroplast and mitochondria

(i) Smooth Endoplasmic Reticulum has no ribosomes. It produces lipids and steroids and transports them within the cell.

Rough Endosplasmic Reticulum has ribosomes. So it remains rough. It helps in the synthesis of protein.

(ii) Cell wall and cell membrane : All cells have an outer covering called cell membrane. But only plants have cell wall in their cells. Owing to this cell wall plants have a much more regular and rigid shape.

(iii) Chloroplast and mitochondria Chloroplasts are green organelles found only in the cells of plants. They produce food from the Sun's energy. Mitochondria are round or oval shaped organelles. They are responsible for cellular respiration which releases energy from the food.

3.  Write correct sequence from cell to organism?

Cell → Tissue → Organ → Organ system → Organism

 4. Write a short note on nucleus.

All plant and animal cells have a nucleus inside the cytoplasm. The nucleus is surrounded by a nuclear envelope. One or two nucleolus and the chromatin body are present inside the nucleus. The nucleus is responsible for the inheritance of character from one generation to another. It controls all the processes inside the cell and it is called the “brain” of the cell. 

 5. Classify the following terms into cells, tissues, organs and write in the tabular column given below

Neuron,  Lungs.  Xylem, brain, adipose, Leaf, RBC, WBC, hand, muscle, heart, ovum, squamous,  phloem, cartilage.

Cell : Neuron, RBC, WBC, Ovum, 

Tissue : Xylem, Adipose , Muscle , Squamous, Phloem, Cartilage

Organ : Lungs, Brain, Leaf, Hand, Heart

6. On the lines given below, write about what you have learned from the activities done in this lesson.

Let me tell you about some of the important things I’ve learned about cells. First, I’ll start with…

 

IX. Give long answer

 

1. Write about any three organelles in detail.

Golgi Complex


Membrane-bounded sacs are stacked on top of one another with associated secretory vesicles. They are collectively known as golgi complex. Functions of golgi complex are the production of secretory substances, packaging and secretion. This is the secret behind the change in the colour and taste of fruits.

Lysosome – “ suicidal bag”.


Lysosomes are very small to view using a light microscope. They are the main digestive compartments of the cell. They destroy and dissolve the cells. As they lyse a cell they are called “suicidal bag’’.

Centrioles:


They are generally found close to the nucleus and are made up of tube-like structures.

Centrioles or centrosomes are present only in animal cells and absent in plant cells. They help in the separation of chromosomes during cell division.

2. In a situation, how to explain, while your friend ask what is this, never seen before?


1. Membrane - It is a plasma membrane. It forms the boundary of an animal cell.

2. Cytoplasm - The fluid in a cell outside the nucleus is called cytoplasm. It contains cell organelles.

3. Rough Endoplasmic Reticulum : It is a membranous net work in cytoplasm. It is rough due to the presence of ribosomes. It helps in the synthesis of protein.

4. Nucleus : All cells have nucleus inside the cytoplasm. It is surrounded by a nuclear envelope. It controls all the processes and chemical reactions that takes place inside the cell.

5. Mitochondrian - It is the powerhouse of the cell. It is responsible for cellular respiration which releases the energy from the food.

6. Centriole : It is a pair of minute cylindrical structure. It is involved in the process of cell division.

7. Golgi apparatus : It is a complex of vesicles and folded membranes. It is involved in secretion and intracellular transport.

8. Lysosome : Lysosomes are very small. They are main digestive compartments of the cell. A lysosome is called the suicidal bag.

9. Ribosomes : They are minute particles consisting of RNA. They synthesize polypeptides and proteins.

3. Compare the plant cell and the animal cell and complete the illustration given below.

Animal cell

Cell membrane

Centrioles

Mostly round cells

Plant cell

Cell wall

Chloroplast

Mostly rectangular cells


 

X. Higher order thinking question

 

Virus is called Acellular. Why?

Viruses are not built up out of cells. They are 'cell free'. So they are called acellular.
