What plant cells carry food?
All plant cells contain some nutrients, however, the cells of the seed, fruit and root tend to be used for food storage. The nutrients are transported around the plant by phloem cells in the vasculature.

Why would someone use or need gene therapy?
To replace faulty genes in the cells of the body, especially where the concerned gene is functional, most used, or can replicate the genes when making new cells (such as blood cell production). There is not much point in replacing genes in every cell of the body, even where that gene not used, hardly used, or will die after a short life and not be able to spread the genes to future daughter cells.
What kind of stain are used to stain plant and animal cells?
Methylene blue stain is used to stain plant and animal cells.
Why do only plant cells have chloroplasts?
Only plant cells contain chloroplasts because they are used to help make food for the plant. Chloroplasts are used in the photosynthesis process.
What are nucleic acid molecules used to deliver new genes to cells called?
