Which gas is absorbed by the palisade cell?
Carbon dioxide is absorbed by the palisade cell. The palisade cell is a plant cell and without them the plant would die. Plants need carbon dioxide so they can produce food. Through photosynthesis (when a plant uses light to convert carbon dioxide into food).
What is cell wall and its function?
The cell wall gives the plant cell structure and protection.
What is the function of the palisade cell?
Palisade cells in leaves are one of many types of plant cells that contains chloroplasts to undergo photosynthesis. They are full of chloroplasts to help absorb more light. The gas they take in is carbon dioxide which helps them to make carbohydrates for the plant. The palisade cells are found in a leaf.
What is better a plant cell or a animal cell?
It depends on whether you are a plant or an animal. Both are essential in carrying out their function.
Cells features found in plant cell and its function?
One difference from an animal cell, is that plant cells have a cell wall which helps to keep the plant rigid and to protect it.
What is the function of carbon in the cell?
Forms the backbone of starch and cellulose within the plant cell. Mostly used during photosynthesis to produce carbohydrates from atmosphertic carbon dioxide.
What can a cell plant do that no animal cell can. what plant cell structure enables it to carry out this function?
Plant cells make their own food in a process called photosynthesis, and no animal cell can do this. The plant structure that enables this function is the chloroplasts on the plant cell.
What is the function of the plant cell that contains many chloroplasts?
The function of a plant cell that contains many chloroplasts is photosynthesis.
What is the function of the cell membrane of the plant cell?
The function of the cell membrane in the plant cell is to separate the interior parts of the cell from the cell wall, and to block off what the cell wall can't.
What is the function endoplasmic in the plant cell?
function of endoplasmic reticulum plant cells
Controlling cell function in a plant cell?
the nucleus
What is the function of plant cell?
The plant cell is the basic living part of the plant. The plant cell is involved in all physical and structural activities.
What is the function of csytoplasm in a plant cell?
It provides a fluid medium that the cell requires to function.
What is the function of the vacuoles in the plant cell?
The vacuole in a plant cell is the same as in an animal cell, it is used as storage.
Is carbon dioxide fixed in a plant cell or animal cell?
Pland cell
What is the function of the chloroplast of a plant cell?
it makes the plant green
What is the function of starch in a leaf?
The function of starch in the leaf is to provide energy for the cell for the different functions. When the starch in the plant cells degrades, carbon is released so that it can be utilized in the production of sucrose.
