Permanent vacuoles exist only in plant cells. They store the cells salty, nutrienty goodness. However, animal cells also form vacuoles if only temporary. These smaller, temporary vacuoles transport substances across a cell (especially water in osmosis).
Essentially, a vacuole is a storage cupboard for a cell.
Mitochondria exist in all eukaryotic cells (as far as I'm aware) and are essentially little sacs of membrane all coiled round and concertinaed to increase their surface area for aerobic respiration (Glucose + Oxygen > Carbon Dioxide + Water + Energy). But biological chemistry is never that simple, is it? The mitochondria can't just make energy - that would be too easy. Instead, they make little molecules of ATP (Adenosine Triphosphate) which, for all intent and purpose, serves as energy within a cell. Mitochondria produce energy which most cells need. So, mitochondria appear in most cells. The more the cells needs energy, the more mitochondria it will have.
What else can I help you with?
What are the storage tanks for food water and waste?
The Vacuole stores food water and waste.
What are the 5 parts to the animal cell called?
nucleus, ribosomes, lysosomes, endoplasmic reticulum (ER), Golgi bodies, cell membrane, cytoplasm, mitochondria,
What is the organelle where respiration occurs?
Cellular respiration occurs in the mitochondria.
What part of the plant cell are shared by animal cells?
Plant cells and animal cells both have cell membranes, a nucleus, cytoplasm, an endoplasmic reticulum, a vacuole, ribosomes, and mitochondria. The only major differences are that plants have cell walls and chloroplasts.
Storage area of the cell?
It is a vacuole. I have this worksheet on a school paper ^^^Correct! Vacuoles are the storage areas of cells.A vacuole is a membrane-bound sac that plays roles in intracellular digestion and the release of cellular waste products. In animal cells, vacuoles are generally small.
What is the difference between a mitochondria and a vacuole?
In broad terms, a vacuole is a storage organelle for the cell, while the mitochondrion produces energy in the form of ATP for the cell.
What structures are in the Mitochondria?
For photosynthesis the structures are chloroplast, mitochondria, ribosomes, and the vacuole, and for cellular structures are glucose, cytoplasm, and mitochondria.
What are the storage tanks for food water and waste?
The Vacuole stores food water and waste.
3 organelles found in animal cells?
Mitochondria, Nucleus, Vacuole, Golgi Complex...
Are cells empty?
No, because as we read in biology that cells have different parts inside it such as Chromosome, Mitochondria, Cell Membrane, Plasma Membrane, Vacuole, Nucleolus etc.
Where is the vacuole located within an animal cell?
The vacuole in an animal cell is typically located near the center of the cell, surrounded by other organelles such as the nucleus and mitochondria.
What is beteween the cell membrane and the nucleus?
All of the cells organelles (Mitochondria, Golgi Complex, Endoplasmic Reticulum, Vacuole, etc.) and cytoplasm lie between the cell membrane and the nucleus.
What are the 3 parts of cell?
golgi apparatus vacuole endoplasmic reticulum mitochondria nucleus nucleolus ribosomes
What are 4 parts of the cell?
golgi apparatus vacuole endoplasmic reticulum mitochondria nucleus nucleolus ribosomes
What is the different between animal cell vacuole and plant cell vacuole?
The difference, is that the vacuole in a plant cell is like a storage unit. It contains extra waste that the plant doesn't need, such as extra water or extra sugar. Inside of an animal cell the Vacuole contains air.
What would not be found in one of your liver cells a. mitochondria b.ER c.peroxisomes d. a central vacuole e. ribosomes?
One thing that would not be found in a liver cell is a central vacuole. Vacuoles are typically found in plant cells, not animal cells like liver cells. Liver cells would contain other organelles such as mitochondria, endoplasmic reticulum, peroxisomes, and ribosomes.
Are mitochondria in plants different from mitochondria in animals?
Mitochondria in plants and animals are similar in structure and function, but there are some differences. Plant mitochondria can have unique functions related to photosynthesis, such as involvement in the production of certain amino acids. Additionally, plant mitochondria may have different compositions of proteins and enzymes compared to animal mitochondria due to their specific cellular roles.
