AICE Biology - Chapter 1 Test Study Guide
Your test will be an application of your knowledge. You must know the structure and function of
organelles, but you will rarely be asked questions a straight forward manner.
1.) Be able to recognize and define the following terms:
Cell theory Partially Freely Light Scanning electron
permeable permeable microscope microscope
Cytology Cell surface Nucleus Chromatin Transmission
membrane electron
microscope
DNA Nucleolus Cytoplasm Organelles Mitochondria
Golgi apparatus Centriole Cell wall Plasmodesmata Vacuole
Tonoplast Chloroplast Magnification Resolution Photomicrograph
Electron Endoplasmic Ultrastructure Nuclear Nuclear pores
micrograph reticulum envelope
Ribosome Lysosome Microvilli Eukaryote Prokaryote
Tissue Organ System Mesophyll Stomata
Xylem Phloem Sieve tubules
2.) Be able to describe and interpret drawings and photographs of typical animal and
plant cells as seen using the light microscope and make microscopical
measurements using an eyepiece graticule and stage micrometer (?????????? May
have to wait for microscopes)
3.) Be familiar with the unit used in cell studies (for this test, exponents will be
provided for measurement units)
4.) Be able to recognize organelles in drawing and photographs, and identify their
function
5.) Compare the structure of typical animal and plant cells
6.) Calculate the linear magnification of, and the actual sizes of, specimens from
drawings and photographs
7.) Describe the structure of a prokaryotic cell and contrast the structure of prokaryotic
cells with that of eukaryotic cells (Table 1.2 page 21)
8.) Explain how eukaryotic cells may be organized into tissues and organ, with
reference to transverse sections of stems, roots, and leaves (pages 20-24)
9.) Draw and label low power plan diagrams of tissues and organs (study the figures on
page 22-23)
10) Review all pictures in the textbook.
