Front

What is the large storage organelle found in plant cells but smaller in animal cells?

Back

Vacuole

Front

What is the typical magnification of the eyepiece lens in a microscope?

Back

10x

Front

What type of cells are commonly used in plant biology studies, often seen in aquatic environments?

Back

Elodea cells

Front

Which cell components are matched during organ transplants to ensure compatibility?

Back

Marker proteins

Front

What is the primary function of the Golgi apparatus in a cell?

Back

To modify, sort, and package proteins and lipids for secretion or delivery to other organelles.

Front

How do vacuoles differ in size between plant and animal cells?

Back

Vacuoles are much larger in plant cells compared to animal cells.

Front

What is the formula for calculating total magnification in a microscope?

Back

Total magnification = magnification of objective lens × magnification of ocular lens.

Front

What role do marker proteins play in the immune response?

Back

Marker proteins help the immune system recognize self from non-self, which is crucial for organ transplants.

Front

What is the significance of the 10x magnification in microscopy?

Back

It is the standard magnification for the eyepiece lens, allowing for a clear view of the specimen when combined with the objective lens.
