Is a potato an animal or plant cell?
A potato is a plant cell. It is a type of vegetable that grows beneath the ground as part of the potato plant. The cells in a potato contain cell structures typical of plant cells, such as a cell wall and chloroplasts.
Is a potato a plant cell or animal cell?
I am assuming you are talking about the potato plant as a whole and not just the stem of the plant, which is what is known as a "potato." So continuing with the assumption that you are talking about a potato plant, then yes a potato plant is a multicellular organism. It is an organism and it has more than one cell that work together for the good of the group of cells.

What happens when the potato strip is in salt solution?
