Comparing Plant and Animal Cells Hypothesis: I predict I will see the following organelles when observing a plant and animal cell under a microscope: the cell membrane‚ cell wall‚ nucleus‚ and the endoplasmic reticulum. Frog Blood: Analysis: 1. The shape of the frog blood cell was in a circle‚ or oval. The edges were a little irregular‚ but it could still be identified as‚ basically‚ a circular shape. 2. The cells were produced by an animal‚ a frog. 3. The cell wall was not present

Animal cells vs. Plant cells Five Similarities Animal and plant cells have many of the same characteristic. Animal cells and plant cells are both eukaryotes. They both have cell nucleus which contain chromosomes or DNA‚ as well as cell membrane encompassing the cell to control the substances moving in and out of the cell. They both contain enzymes from liposome for breaking down larger molecules. Animal and plant cells both transport protein into and out of cells through endoplasmic reticulum

Animal and Plant cells consist of most of the same cell types‚ but the whole shape of the cell is quite different. An animal cell is a round‚ uneven shape‚ whereas the Plant cell has an affixed shape. They have a more of a rectangular shape. Chloroplast‚ Vacuole and the Cell wall are only found in Plant cells. The Chloroplast is the organelle for the whole system of Photosynthesis. Chloroplasts are found in mesophyll cells (which are found in the leaves) of green plants. They convert light into

Robert Sullivan Period 3‚ Biology 11/18/2007 Plant Cell Paper Plant Cell The plant cell is seemingly less complicated then the animal cells. Having the necessary nucleus which holds the cells DNA and produces ribosomes that help in the synthesis of proteins. Surrounding the nucleus is the rough and smooth endoplasmic reticulum. The two help break down and store materials. Rough stores and transports synthesized proteins‚ while smooth stores and transports synthesized lipid‚ steroid hormones

Plant Cell Plant cells have many different parts that are need to work together and function as a whole. These parts are the cell membrane which can be compared to a "Condom" due to the fact that is a very thin protective layer that lets certain substances to pass through. Cell wall is a thicker rougher membrane‚ which gives the plant most of its structure and support‚ the cell wall also bond with other cell walls to form the structure of the plant. Centrosome may be also referred to as the
Premium Cell Endoplasmic reticulum Organelle
Plant cells are eukaryotic cells that differ in several key aspects from the cells of other eukaryotic organisms. Their distinctive features include: A large central vacuole‚ a water-filled volume enclosed by a membrane known as the tonoplast maintains the cell’s turgor‚ controls movement of molecules between the cytosol and sap‚ stores useful material and digests waste proteins and organelles. A cell wall composed of cellulose and hemicellulose‚ pectin and in many cases lignin‚ is secreted by
Premium Cell wall Cell Plant
Almost all plants have roots that grow into the soil to help support its life. Roots are used by the plants to take nutrients and water out of the soil and send it through the plant. They also stabilize the plant. The root is made up multiple parts starting at the bottom with the root cap‚ then the zone of cell division next is the zone of cell elongation‚ and at the top of the root is the zone of differentiation. To figure out what section of the root has the highest number of cells in mitosis we

Estimating Osmolarity of Plant Cells Criteria Assessed: DCP Introduction In this experiment you will be estimating the osmolarity of potato cells by finding their change in weight in solutions of known molarity. The object is to find the molarity where the mass does not change. No net change in weight indicates that there has been no net gain or loss of water. This is a means of indirectly finding the osmolarity of the cells themselves. Apparatus 1 large potato Petri dish 7 x 250 ml beakers

PLANT CELL Introduction Plant cell is the basic unit of structure and function in nearly all plants. The range of specialization and the character of association of plant cells are very wide. In the simplest plant forms a single cell constitutes a whole organism and carries out all the life functions. In just slightly more complex forms‚ cells are associated structurally‚ but each cell appears to carry out the fundamental life functions‚ although certain ones may be specialized
