Scientists could observe that the leaf cells have a large number of chloroplasts, indicating their role in photosynthesis. Additionally, they could note the green color of the chloroplasts due to the presence of chlorophyll, the pigment responsible for capturing light energy.

Why is observations important to scientists?

Observation helps scientists gather an collect data, which without, their experiment(s) could not exist


Why do scientists use tools when they make observations?

Tools enable scientists to make more accurate observations, and to observe things that they otherwise could not observe. For example, microscopes allow scientists to observe bacteria, which otherwise are too small to see.


What parts of a cell do scientists think were once free-living organisms?

Mitochondria and chloroplasts are thought to have once been a free prokaryotic cell.


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.


Information scientists collect when doing experiments and making observations?

When conducting experiments and making observations, information scientists typically collect data such as measurements, observations, and other relevant facts related to the research question. This data is collected systematically and accurately to ensure that it is reliable for analysis and drawing conclusions. Scientists may also document any unexpected findings or variables that could influence the results.


How is a theory and a observation related?

Scientists make observations about the natural world through experiments and try to explain the phenomena that they observe. Scientists then attempt to explain the occurence of all of these observations in an overarching theory. For example, an observation would be seeing an apple fall to the ground and making measurements. The next step would be taking all of these observations which could include things such as the movement of planets and other cosmic bodies to form the theory of gravity which attempts to explain these observations.

What are qualative observations?

Qualitative observations could also be called qualitative data, and would be data not related to exact numbers. Such observations could be warmth, flavor, gender, or yes-no answers to questions.


Why did some scientists disagree with the phlogiston theory?

Some scientists disagreed with the phlogiston theory because it could not explain all the observations, such as the weight changes in substances during combustion. Additionally, the discovery of oxygen and its role in combustion provided a more accurate explanation for the phenomena previously attributed to phlogiston.


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.

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.
