Why are the two samples of carrot cells different?

What is the name and function of the thicker layer of the cells next to the epidermis in the carrot?
The thicker layer of cells next to the epidermis in a carrot is called the cortex. The cortex functions to store carbohydrates and nutrients, providing support and structure for the carrot.
When a carrot slice is placed in tap water for several hours why does it become very stiff?
When a carrot slice is placed in tap water, it absorbs the water through a process called osmosis. The water moves into the carrot cells, causing them to become turgid and swell, making the carrot slice stiff. This happens because the water pressure inside the cells increases, providing structural support to the carrot slice.
What is the name and function of the outer ring cells of a carrot?
The outer ring cells of a carrot are called phloem cells. They are responsible for transporting sugars and other nutrients produced during photosynthesis from the leaves to other parts of the plant, including the roots.
Is there DNA in carrots?
Yes, carrots contain DNA as they are living organisms that have cells with genetic material. DNA provides the instructions for the growth and development of the carrot plant.
Which structure appears in the cells of a carrot but not in the cells of a rabbit eating the carrot?
A raw carrot has cells that a rabbit does not. A carrot contains fiber, potassium and Vitamin C.
How many different kinds of cells can you see on a carrot slice?
On a carrot slice, you can see different types of cells such as epidermal cells, parenchyma cells, and vascular cells. Each type of cell has a specific function in the carrot's structure and function.
What happens to Carrot cells in salt water?
Carrot cells placed in salt water will lose water due to osmosis, causing them to shrink and become wilted. The high concentration of salt in the water creates a hypertonic environment, leading to water leaving the carrot cells to try to balance the salt concentration.
Are there cells in a carrot?
Yes. All complex plants and animals are composed of cells.
Why are the two samples of carrot cells different?
because
What is the name and of the outer ring of cells of a carrot?
The name of the ring is called the epidermis, which protects the outer layer of the carrot.
What cells are in the inner core of a carrot?
The cells in the middle of a carrot (vascular bundle) consist of xylem & phloem. Xylem are responsible for water transportation and phloem transports nutrients. These tissues are primarily made of sclerenchyma cells as well as parenchyma cells.
Are the plant and animal cells you observed prokaryotic or eukaryotic?
Plant cells and animal cells are always eukaryotic.
What is responsible for the green shoulder of carrot?
If the top of the carrot (the tap root of the carrot plant) is exposed to sunlight, it will turn green because its cells will begin producing chlorophyll.
Why does a carrot feel spongy after soaking in salt water?
Soaking a carrot in salt water causes water to move out of the carrot cells through osmosis, leading to dehydration of the carrot and making it feel spongy. This is because the salt water has a higher concentration of solutes than the carrot cells, causing water to leave the cells to balance the concentrations.
Which phrase does not describe cells cloned from a carrot?
They are produced sexually.
What is the name and function of the thicker layer of the cells next to the epidermis in the carrot?
The thicker layer of cells next to the epidermis in a carrot is called the cortex. The cortex functions to store carbohydrates and nutrients, providing support and structure for the carrot.
