ANIMAL CELLS:
Nucleus: found at the centre of the cell, contains genetic information and controls cell
Cytoplasm: a jelly-like solution with enzymes where reactions take place within the cell
Mitochondria: where energy is produced through the process of respiration
Ribosomes: where proteins are made
Cell Membrane: partially permeable - controls what substance enter and leave the cell (obviously also contains the contents)
PLANT CELLS (along with all the above):
Chloroplasts: made of xhlorophyll, photosynthesis takes place here (only found in leaf palisade cells)
Cell Wall: made of cellulose, gives rigidity to shape of cell
Permanent Vacuole: filled with a solution of salts and sugars called cell sap
Plant cells have Chloroplasts and Cell Walls. Animal cells do not.
Organelles are found in both plant and animal cells. They are the "little organs" within cells that allow the cell to carry out particular functions.
Lysosomes are found in both plant and animal cells.
Both plant and animal cells have organelles. However, plant cells have additional organelles such as chloroplasts and large central vacuoles that are not present in animal cells. These organelles are essential for functions specific to plant cells, such as photosynthesis and maintaining turgor pressure.
A polar bear has animal cells. Animal cells are the basic building blocks of most animals, including mammals like polar bears. Plant cells have different structures and functions compared to animal cells.
Plant cells have chloroplasts and cell walls, which animal cells don't have.
Plant cells have Chloroplasts and Cell Walls. Animal cells do not.
Plant cells contain unique components such as chloroplasts, cell walls made of cellulose, and large central vacuoles. These structures are not present in animal cells and serve specific functions in plant cells, such as photosynthesis, providing structural support, and storing nutrients and waste.
Lysosomes are found in animal cells. Plant cells have similar organelles called lytic vacuoles that carry out similar functions to lysosomes.
Organelles are found in both plant and animal cells. They are the "little organs" within cells that allow the cell to carry out particular functions.
Animal cells have centrioles, lysosomes, and flagella, which are structures that are typically absent in plant cells. These components play important roles in cell division, intracellular digestion, and cell movement in animal cells.
Essentially plant cells and animal cells share all of the same basic components. Nucleus, Ribosome, Golgi, Mitochondria, Endoplasmic Reticulum and the list goes on. Plant cells have three structures that animal cells do to not. They are a Cell wall that is outside the plasma membrane, chloroplasts, and vacuoles.
Plant, animal, and bacterial cells have different structures and components because they have evolved to adapt to different environments and functions. For example, plant cells have cell walls for support and chloroplasts for photosynthesis, while animal cells have lysosomes for breaking down waste. Bacterial cells are structurally simpler and lack membrane-bound organelles found in eukaryotic cells.
The centrosome in animal cells typically contains a pair of centrioles, while plant cells do not have centrioles in their centrosomes. Additionally, plant cells have structures called microtubule organizing centers (MTOCs) that serve similar functions to centrosomes in animal cells.
Lysosomes are found in both plant and animal cells.
Plant cells do have Golgi bodies, lysosomes, and ribosomes, but they may be less prominent or structured differently compared to animal cells. Centrioles are absent in most plant cells, as the functions they perform in animal cells are carried out by other structures in plant cells like the microtubule organizing centers.
Both plant and animal cells have organelles. However, plant cells have additional organelles such as chloroplasts and large central vacuoles that are not present in animal cells. These organelles are essential for functions specific to plant cells, such as photosynthesis and maintaining turgor pressure.
