By one user: This is because they are very stupid. Edited by RingetteGirl : We study plant cells to learn how plants work, make food [photosynthesis], and grow. Anybody who has nothing to do but write stupid comments such as; "This is because they are very stupid" is not giving out correct information and is just a pointless answer to put down. SO please stop giving out answers that mean nothing.

Can plant and animal cells only be viewed by a microscope?

Yes, plant and animal cells are typically viewed under a microscope because they are too small to be seen with the naked eye. Microscopes allow scientists to observe and study the structures and organelles within these cells in detail.


When looking in the microscope what cellular structures did you observe in plant cells but not in animal cells?

When observing plant cells under a microscope, distinct cellular structures such as the cell wall and chloroplasts can be identified, which are absent in animal cells. The cell wall provides rigidity and support, while chloroplasts are responsible for photosynthesis. Additionally, plant cells often contain a large central vacuole that helps maintain turgor pressure, a feature not typically found in animal cells.


Why do you think that there are many small chloroplasts in plant cells instead of just one or two large ones?

Because scientists have seen them.You can use a microscope to observe them.


What did Robert hooke do for botany?

Robert Hooke made significant contributions to botany through his work on plant anatomy, specifically his use of a microscope to observe plant cells. Hooke's detailed studies of plant structure, including his discovery of plant cells, laid the foundation for modern botany and our understanding of plant biology.


What would a scientist be able to observe about the cells under a microscope?

It helps us because the cell processes were never discovered with out the electron microscope. See their movements and functions much more clearly. Better than regular because it zooms more larger.

What cells were discovered using a light microscope?

The discovery of various cells, including plant cells by Robert Hooke and animal cells by Anton van Leeuwenhoek, were achieved using a light microscope. The light microscope enabled scientists to observe and study cells for the first time in the 17th century.

Who invented the microscope slide?

The invention of the microscope slide is credited to naturalist and scientist Robert Hooke, who used thin pieces of cork to observe plant cells under a microscope in the 17th century.


What tool help you see a plant cell?

Plant cells have large vacuoles, cell walls and are usually rectangular prisms in diagrams. As opposed to animal cells which are spherical and have small vacuoles.


OBSERVING OSMOSIS IN PLANT CELLS?

You can observe osmosis in plant cells by placing a plant cell in a hypertonic or hypotonic solution and observing any changes in cell size and shape due to the movement of water. Hypertonic solution will cause cell to shrink (plasmolysis) and hypotonic solution will cause cell to swell. You can use a microscope to observe these changes in plant cells during osmosis.

What are things you can observe under a microscope?

You can scrape the inside part of your cell and examine the cheek cells. Also, you can use various plants such as an Elodea plant. If it is alive and wet, it is better.
