Cell Facts • All living things are composed of cells.• Cells are the basic unit of structure and
function of all living things.• Cells are produced from other cells.• Cells do everything from providing
structure and stability to helping provide energy and means of reproduction.
are
Animal cell Plant cell
Cell wall: NO cell wall Present (formed of cellulose)
Shape: Round (irregular shape)
Rectangular (fixed shape)
Vacuole: One or more small vacuoles (much smaller than plant cells).
One, large central vacuole taking up 90% of cell volume.
Centrioles: Present in all animal cells.
Only present in lower plant forms.
Chloroplast: NONE Plant cells have chloroplasts because they make their own food
Plastids: None Present
Plasma Membrane:
cell membrane only
cell wall and a cell membrane
Lysosomes: Lysosomes occur in cytoplasm.
Lysosomes usually not evident.
