Does an animal cell have cell sap?

No, animal cells do not have cell sap. Cell sap is a fluid found in the vacuoles of plant cells, which store water, sugars, ions, and pigments. Animal cells do not have a central vacuole like plant cells, so they do not contain cell sap.


What is the major physical difference between vacuoles in an plant cell and vacuoles in an animal cell?

In a plant cell the vacuole is much larger than the animal cells vacuole. The plant cells vacuole mostly contains water. In the animal cells vacuole it is used to store waste.Animal cells do not have vacuoles. Only plant cells

How can you tell if its a animal cell or plant cell?

If the cell has a cell wall and a vacuole and chloroplasts You can tell them apart by looking through the microscope and seeing if it has a cell wall. If it does then it is a plant cell. If it doesn't then it is an animal cell.


Do a plant cell have more than one vacuole?

What cell contains the cell sap?

In fully grown plant cells, there is a large central space surrounded by a membrane called vacuole. This vacuole ia permanent feature of the cell. This is filled with a liquid called cell sap. So the cell sap is in the vacuole.
