Plant and animal cells have similarities and differences
Animal Cell (like human cells) consist of:
1. Nucleus - Contains genetic material that controls activities of the cell
2.Cytoplasm - Gel like substance where most of the chemical reactions take place. Contains enzymes
3. Cell membrane
4. Mitochondria - Most of the reactions for respiration take place here
5. Ribosomes - Where proteins are made in the cell
Plant cells contain the above plus:
1 Rigid cell wall - made of cellulose it supports and strengthens the cell
2. Permanent vacuole - contains cell sap which is a weak solution of sugar and salts
