Matching Pairs Plant vs Animal Cells - MatchingOnline version Plant vs Animal Cells - Matching Activity by Benjamin D Morgan 1 The variable that we keep the same in an experiment? 2 Chlorophyll 3 How does the amount of sunlight effect how long the leaves on a tree stay green? Independent variable? 4 The variable that we make different in an experiment. The "cause" 5 The variable that we measure in an experiment. The effect 6 Large Central Water Vacuole 7 Many small vacuoles 8 How does the amount of sunlight effect how long the leaves on a tree stay green? Dependent variable? 9 Plant and Animal cells 10 How does the amount of sunlight effect how long the leaves on a tree stay green? Controlled variable? 11 Lysosomes 12 Vacuoles 13 Chloroplasts 14 Cell Wall 15 Photosynthesis 16 Cellulose The amount of water the the tree receives Organelles only found in animal cells that break down and digest food particles and worn out cell parts. A rigid layer of cellulose outside the cell membrane, that gives the plant and the cell, structure, and support. Dependent variable definition Independent variable definition how much sun the tree gets Organelles found in animal cells that store food, water and waste. A green pigment found in chloroplasts that help trap the sun's energy. Controlled variable definition An organelle found in eukaryotic cells that store food, water and waste. Material that makes up the cell wall of a plant cell. How long the leaves on a tree stay green An organelle found in plant cells that stores mainly water this helps create pressure that inflates the cell. Examples of eukaryotic cells A process that plants use to convert the sun's energy into sugars that the plant can use. An organelle found in plant cells that capture the sun's energy and convert the light energy into chemical energy.
