What are two observations a scientist could make about the leaf cells and chloroplasts?

Leaf cells contain chloroplasts. Photosynthesis occurs in the chloroplasts as they retain energy from the sun. Chloroplasts contain chlorophyll, which make leaves appear green.

Can Chloroplasts can be found in both plant and animal cells?
Chloroplasts are generally only found in plant cells, although there may be some circumstances in which they could be found in animal cells, I doubt it.
Which structures could most likely be observed in cells in the low power field of a compound light microscope?
Cell walls and chloroplasts
Could you name 10 organelles?
- Nucleus - Nucleolus - Mitochondrion (plural: Mitochondria) - Vacuoles - Golgi Apparatus - Cell Membrane - Cytoplasm - Centrioles (Plant Cells only) - Chloroplasts (Plant cells only) - Ribosomes
A biologist ground up some plant leaf cells and then centrifuged the mixture to fractionate the organelles Organelles in one of the heavier fractions could produce ATP in the light while organelles?
Chloroplasts and mitochondria. *on masteringbio, be sure to choose the above, and not "mitochondria and chloroplasts"
Which scientist first saw cork cells in 1662?
Robert Hooke noticed, while using a microscope, that he could see "cells" in cork. These were like the little rooms that monks slept in and were called cells.
Can Chloroplasts can be found in both plant and animal cells?
Chloroplasts are generally only found in plant cells, although there may be some circumstances in which they could be found in animal cells, I doubt it.
What structure could you see in the Elodea cells?
The cell wall surrounding all plant cells
Why is careful obersavation important to being a scientist?
A scientist may create an hypothesis on the basis of their observations. If their observations are carelessly made or recorded then any hypotheses they offer will be inaccurate reflections of nature. A scientist may alternatively collect observations to test an hypothesis. If these observations are carelessly made or recorded then the conclusions that the scientist makes about the hypothesis could very well be incorrect. At the very least the conclusions they draw would not be based on sound evidence (because the observations are unsound).
What could be a possible function of a plant cell that has a lot of chloroplasts?
Chloroplasts are used for photosynthesis. Thus, these cells could be involved heavily is carbon fixation (making glucose from c02 + h2o, Calvin cycle). Probably leaf cells.
If you could add chloroplasts to animal cells how would it change their behavior?
They would be able to photosynthesise, which they are currently unable to do because they do not possess chloroplasts.
How do you know the students in the above study are acting as scientist?
Students could be seen to be acting as scientist if they are following the scientific method - Make observations, postulate a hypothesis, and form and complete experiments or further observations to confirm or refute that hypothesis.
Which organelle is present in the cells of a bean plant but not in the cells of a mouse?
Centriole
Why is it important for scientist to record their observations?
i think it is because then they could see their notes again later and see if anything has changed. but i am not sure.
What was the impact of Leeuwenhoek's contribution?
Antony van Leeuwenhoek (1632-1723) was a Dutch scientist. He designed microscopes that could magnify up to 200 times. These enabled him to discover bacteria, protists, sperm cells, blood cells and many more microscopic features of living cells or micro-organisms. His discoveries were important milestones in the field of biology. He did not invent the microscope, but his inquiring mind, astute observations and his keen mind were all the more impressive as he was not educated as a scientist.
Which structures could most likely be observed in cells in the low power field of a compound light microscope?
Cell walls and chloroplasts
Why are scientist tools important?
A scientist needs tools in order to conduct controlled experiments for gathering data. Without the proper materials, a scientist could not make objective observations on their field of research, and so their findings would be meaningless. Also, a scientist needs a large sample size in order to account for all variables that could influence the experiment.
Why was the first microscope invented?
the microscope was originally invented so that scientist could get a better look at cells
