Many cells take in materials from outside in the form of food vacuole and then digest the material with the help of lysosomes.
Some unicellular organisms use contractile vacuole or the elimination of wastes from their bodies.
What is meant by turgor pressure?

The outward pressure on cell wall exerted by internal water is known as turgor pressure.

Ribosomes are either floating freely in cytoplasm or bound to endoplasmic reticulum.
Riobosomes are the sites of proteins synthesis.
Protein synthesis is extremely important to cells, and so large numbers of ribosomes are found throughout cells.

Leucoplasts are type of plastid. They are colourless and store starch, proteins and lipids. Theyy are present in those cells where food is stored. Chloroplasts are the sites of photosynthesis in eukaryotes. They contain chlorophyll, the green pigment necessary for photosynthesis, and associated pigments. These pigments are present in thlakoids of the grana.

The shrinkage of cytoplasm is called plasmolysis.
Defien “Sodium-Potassium Pump?

The membranes of nerve cells have carrier proteins in the form of sodium-potassium pump. In resting nerve cell this pump spends energy to maintain higher concentrations of K+ and lower concentration of Na+ inside the cell. For this purpose the pump actively moves Na+ to the outside of the cell where they are already in higher concentration. Similarly, this pumps moves K+ from outside to inside the cell where they are in higher concentration.

What is meant by passive diffusion?

When a transport protein moves a substance ffrom higher to lower concentration, the process is called facilitated diffusion. Facilitated diffusion is a passive diffusion because there is no expenditure of energy in this process. The rate of facilitated diffusion is higher than simple diffusion.
Why cell membrane is called semi permeable membrane?

The cell membrane functions as a semi-permeable barrier, allowing a very few molecules across it while fencing the majority of chemicals inside the cell. In this way wthe cell membrane maintains the internal composition of the cell.

Contribution of Matthias Schleiden:
In 1838 a German botanist Matthas Schleiden studied plant tissues and made the first statement of the cell theory. He stated that all plants are aggregates of individuals cells which are fully independent.

 In 1839 a German zoologist Theodor Schwann reported that all animal tissues are also composed of individual cells. Thus Schleiden and Schwann proposed cell theory in its initial form.
What is scanning electron microscope?

In SEM electrons are relected from the metal coated surfaces. SEM is used to study the structure of cell surfaces.
What is sclerenchyma tissues?

They are composed of cells with rigid secondary cell walls. Their cell walls are hardened with lignin which is the main chemical component of wood. These tissues provide strength and flexibility to plants.
What are leucoplasts and where do they occur?

Leucoplasts are colourless plastids and store starch, proteins and lipids. They are present in the cells of those parts where food is stored.
Describe the function of xylem and phloem tissues?

Xylem tissue is responsible for transport of water, while phloem tissue transport food in plants body.
Why endoplasmic reticulum is called rough and smooth endoplasmic reticulum?

Rough endoplasmic reticulum is so-named because of its rough appearance due to the numerous ribosomes that are attached to it.
Smooth Endoplasmic Reticulum (SER): lacks ribosomes and have smooth surface.
What si the fifference between primary cell wall and secondary cell wall?

Primary wall: The outer laer of the plant cell wall is known as primary wall and cellulose is the most common chemical in it.
Secondary wall: Some plant cells such as xylem cells also have secondary walls on the inner side of the primary wall. It is much thicker and contains lignin and other chemicals.
Differentiate between Transmission Electron Microscope and Scanning Electron Microscope?

Transmission Electron Microscope: TEM is used to study the details of the internal cell structure. In TEM electrons are transmitted through the specimen.
Scanning Electron Microscope SEM:  In SEM electrons are reflected from the metal-coated surfaces. SEM is used to study the structure of cell surfaces.
