1. Plant Cells

2. Plant and Animal cells

3. Plant and Animal Cells Both have… Cell Membranes Cytoplasm Nucleus
Ribosomes
Mitochondria
Smooth and RoughER
Vacuoles
Golgi Complex

4. Cell Wall Found only in plant cells
Stiff, rigid, protective barrier outside of the membrane.
The cell wall is made of cellulose (sugars) and helps the cell keep its shape.

5. Chloroplasts They are only found in plant cells.
Allow the plant to use sunlight to make food (photosynthesis).
The stroma is an area inside of the chloroplast where sugars are created. Chlorophyll uses radiant energy to create glucose.

6. Vacuoles
Plants have one large vacuole that stores food and nutrients, increases cell size, and acts like a lysosome.

7. Vacuoles, cont.
A wilting plant has lost much of its water and the vacuoles are shrinking. Cell walls help the cell keep its structure. When vacuoles are refilled with water, the plant goes back to its original shape.
