calculating TPI

  • Divide the selected genus to the total amount in the water sample. (frequency)

  • then multiply the pollution index (given) to the frequency(calculating rTPI)

  • add all the rTPI (relative total pollution index) to get the total polution index

Functions of cell structure: cell wall

  • provides tensile strength and protection against mechanical and osmotic stress

  • It allows cells to develop turgor pressure

New cards
43

Functions of cell structure: central vacuole

  • holds materials and waste and also maintains proper pressure

  • Found in the centre of plant cells

New cards
44

Anthocyanins

  • blue, purple, and red pigments

  • they are not plastids

  • occurs in the central vacuole

New cards
64

In the spinach leaf experiment what was observed?

  • cells that make up the leaves of a plant are specialized to carry out the process of photosynthesis

  • the process occurs in specialized organelles called chloroplasts

  • the intercellular spaces between cells carry carbon dioxide which enters through stomata.

  • the byproduct of oxygen is produce

  • when we put the discs in a vaccum, sodium bicarbonate solution filled the spaces between the cells, causing them to sink

  • when we put some of the discs under the light, the process of photosynthesis occured creating oxygen

  • the oxygen replaced the sodium bicarbonate between the cells, making the leaves float

  • plasma membrane

  • cytoplasm

  • nucleus
