The "cause" Controlled variable definition Dependent variable definition The amount of water the the tree receives how much sun the tree gets Organelles found in animal cells that store food, water and waste. How long the leaves on a tree stay green A green pigment found in chloroplasts that help trap the sun's energy. Organelles only found in animal cells that break down and digest food particles and worn out cell parts. An organelle found in plant cells that capture the sun's energy and convert the light energy into chemical energy. An organelle found in eukaryotic cells that store food, water and waste. Examples of eukaryotic cells An organelle found in plant cells that stores mainly water this helps create pressure that inflates the cell. A process that plants use to convert the sun's energy into sugars that the plant can use. A rigid layer of cellulose outside the cell membrane, that gives the plant and the cell, structure, and support. Material that makes up the cell wall of a plant cell. Independent variable definition
