no not all cells are the same size. Cells come in different sizes depending on where the cell is found or its organelles inside. Some cells have a flagellum that hepls it move and some cells have cilia that hepl it move these are two different ways of moving and thay are different sizes.

How do you know when a cell is a plant cell?

Plant cells are typically identified by the presence of a cell wall made of cellulose, chloroplasts which perform photosynthesis, and a large central vacuole for storage. These features distinguish plant cells from animal cells.


Is a vaculoe in a plant or animal cell?

A vacuole is present in both plant and animal cells, but they differ in size and function between the two types of cells. In plant cells, the vacuole is large and mainly responsible for storing water, nutrients, and wastes, as well as maintaining turgor pressure. In animal cells, vacuoles are smaller and are involved in storing materials and transporting substances.


What is the Size of plant cells in meters?

Plant cells typically range in size from about 10 to 100 micrometers (µm) in diameter, which translates to 0.00001 to 0.0001 meters. The exact size can vary depending on the type of plant and its specific cell type, such as parenchyma or sclerenchyma. Generally, plant cells are larger than animal cells, allowing for specialized functions like photosynthesis and storage.


What is the difference between an animal cells er and plant cells er?

The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) in animal and plant cells have similar structures and functions. However, plant cells typically have a more extensive network of ER due to their larger size and need for increased protein synthesis to support cell wall production. Additionally, plant cells often contain specialized ER called the "smooth ER" that is involved in lipid metabolism and synthesis of molecules for cell wall construction.


What structure makes plants and animal cells different?

A plant cell contains a cell wall made from cellulose whereas an animal cell does not. Also, plant cells use photosynthesis to convert light energy into glucose because of the chloroplast. Under the microscope, plant cells tend to be more blocky and general in appearance and animal cells vary in size and shape.

Are plant or animals cells larger in size?

plant cells are usually bigger than animal cells plant cells can range from 10 to 100 micrometers where as animal cells range from 10 to 30 micrometers :) hope this helps


Are human cells the same size as the whale cells?

Yes they are the same size. The whale is a bigger animal because there are more of the cells, not because the cells are bigger.


What is the difference between plant cell and animal cells?

an animal cell contains a nucleus as does the plant cell. the plant cell contains a cell wall but the animal cell contains a cell membrane. they bothe have the same purpose to protect the inner layer of the cells. a plant cell has a vacoule which is a storage area for cytoplasm and an animal cell does not. a plant cell also contains chloroplast which is a pigment to give the plant cells its green color.


What are two structural differences between animal and plant?

The two structural differences between plant cells and animal cells are: 1) Plants have a cell wall in addition to cell membrane In animals cell walls are absent 2)Plant cells are generraly larger in size. Animal cells are smaller than plant cells.


How are vacuoles of animal cells different from vacuoles of plant cells?

Vacuoles in animal cells are uncommon and relatively small. If you imagine a cell as being the size of a shoebox, an animal cell vacuole would be about the size of a ping-pong ball. Vacuoles in plant cells are much bigger, if present. They give shape and form to the cells, and determine wilting. They are about the size of a pair of shoes in a shoebox.

How does the size of the differ between plant and animal cells?

animal cells have basically a shape that's very odd almost resembles to a mess up circle, plant cells have a rectangular shape. (to observe the cells, think about typing into a search engine and look for images of both animal and plant cells to make the comparison yourself.)


Are plant cells usually smaller or larger than animal cells?

Plant cells can be larger than animal cells. The normal range for an animal cell varies from 10 to 30 micrometers while that for a plant cell stretches from 10 to 100 micrometers. Beyond size, the main structural differences between plant and animal cells lie in a few additional structures found in animal cells. These structures include: chloroplasts, the cell wall, and vacuoles


What's the difference in ribosomes in animal cells and plant cells?

Plant cells have a rigid structure, while animal cells have a more flexible structure.Explanation...A plant cell contains a cell wall (made primarily of cellulose) which gives the cell a rigid structure. Animal cells do not contain cell walls, so they have a more flexible structuredefined by their underlying cytoskeleton.Both plant cells and animals divide.In both plant cells and animal cells, the DNA is stored in the nucleus.Plant cells carry out photosynthesis, while animal cells do not.------------------------------------------------------------------
