Plant Cell
Definition
Plant Cell
Plant cells are eukaryotic cells that vary in
several fundamental factors from other
eukaryotic organisms. The existence of a
cell wall outside the cell membrane is one
of the distinguishing characteristics of a
plant cell.
Cell Membrane
The cell membrane is a thin
barrier that surrounds the cells of
all living organisms. It is
composed of a double layer of
phospholipid molecules and
proteins.
Nucleus and Nucleolus
The nucleus is often referred to as
the "control center" of the cell. The
nucleolus is responsible for the
production of ribosomes, which
are responsible for making
proteins.
It is essential for the growth and
survival of plants, as they are
responsible for producing food, in
the form of sugars, for the plant.
Chloroplast
It is essential for the growth and survival of plants, as
they are responsible for producing food, in the form
of sugars, for the plant.
Vacuole
It is involved in the sorting and
packaging of proteins and
other molecules which are
transported within and out of
the cell.
Golgi Apparatus
Mitochondria also contain their own DNA and
ribosomes, which allow them to replicate and
produce proteins.
Mitochondria
It is a membrane-bound
organelle that is responsible
for the breakdown and
recycling of macromolecules
that are no longer needed by
the cell.
Lysosome
The endoplasmic reticulum is
an organelle that helps in the
transport, processing, and
storage of proteins and other
molecules.
