Organelles Vs. Animal Cells

All mammalian cells are eukaryotic, and whilst the eukaryotic type of cell is not exclusive to mammals, mammalian cells differ from other eukaryotic cells because of the organelles that are or are not present. For instance some plant cells have chloroplasts which are not present in mammalian cells, but both plant cells and mammalian cells are eukaryotic in nature. The term eukaryotic refers to the cell having specific membrane bound organelles, which are not present in prokaryotic cells. The defining feature of a eukaryotic cell is usually its membrane bound nucleus (the exception being the red blood cell) [1].

With some of the cells being visible to the untrained eye, others are smaller and are not as easily seen, unless you have the Microscope. Different cells use various organelles to get around however, others do not.

According to Mattias Schleiden and Theodor Schwann the cell is the basic unit of life(Cell Theory- OI). Two common types of cells are the plant and animal cells. Although both kinds of cells share many similar, abundant structures, they also have varying descrepancies from cell to cell. Without a doubt, the nucleus is the most important organelle in the plant cell, even though, the lysosome is the most important structure in the animal cell.

Yo It's Greenberg, Pantalones and Calcetines. We're here to teach you a thing or two. There are two types of cells, plants and animals, doesn't sound too swell, but learning about them will make you well. First, we're going to tell you about the plant cell. We're going with the chloroplasts, it gives off as much energy as a rocket blast. Next is the lysosomes breaking them down, the don't mess around, 'cause they ain't no clown. The cell wall just like skin, a layer that’s so thin. The next lives in moss, and controls the plant like a boss. Up comes the ribosomes showing you how to make food, but it might not be too good. Endoplasmic reticulum, organelle with passageways that represents a "highway". Energy is produced in this area also known

Second off we have the plant cell. The plant cell has chloroplasts unlike a animal cell (Doc.1). Chloroplasts hold

All the organelles have to work together. They all have a certain task to do and they carry that task on and on with every organelle. The cells have to make and transport protein to the nucleus to create RNA. The animal cells need protein for the growth and damage with tissues. First, is starts with chromosomes which contains information to make the protein. Since the DNA isn’t allowed to leave the nucleus its copied onto a temporary carrier called a messenger RNA. Next, the messenger RNA would transport to the cytosol. While in the cytosol and get help to transfer the protein to the ribosomes docked onto the endoplasmic reticulum. The ribosomes has to use amino acids to build the protein. Lastly after the protein is built it goes through the endoplasmic reticulum to have a few last finishing touches.

21) Which of the following is a feature of plant cell division that distinguishes it from animal cell division? A) formation of a cleavage furrow B) production of four (rather than two) new cells per mitotic division C) lack of cytokinesis D) formation of a cell plate 22) Which of the following features likely accounts for the difference between plant and animal cell cytokinesis? A) Animal cells lack chloroplasts. B) Plant cells have cell walls. C) Animal cells lack the microfilaments required for forming a cleavage furrow. D) Plant cells have two sets of chromosomes; animal cells have one set of chromosomes. 23) Which of the following must occur for a plant or animal to grow and develop normally? A) The organism must receive a supply of the appropriate hormones from its parents. B) Sufficient light must be available to stimulate cell division. C)

The organelle I have chosen is the cell wall. The analogy I will use is that the cell wall is like city/border wall. The wall allows for physical structure and also the ability to let things cross through its walls, such as other living organisms or inorganic products. The border/city wall has the choice to allow these things to pass or not to pass through this checkpoint. The ability to reject certain things from crossing allows the city (cell) to protect itself from contamination or pollution.

This is made possible by the support lent to it by the slightly elastic cellulose cell wall. It will support a turgid cell enough to prevent it from bursting (see left). It is turgid cells such as this that provide a plant with its support. Animal cells on the other hand, do not have supporting cell walls, just cell membranes. As plants are always surrounded by water, it is vital for them to have cell walls, but animal cells, surrounded by blood (low water concentration), do not need as much support.

Plant cells have selectively permeable membrane that allows selective substances to penetrate into the cell. Cell membranes are consisting of lipid layer that are made up of phospholipids. (Essays, UK.2013). These phospholipids are amphipathic in nature, which have phospholipids head and tail respectively. Phospholipids heads are hydrophilic and tails

instructions from DNA. Proteins from the cytoplasm enter the the nucleus through the nuclear pores and combine with rRNA to make subunits of ribosomes. The small and large subunits of ribosomes then exit the nucleus also through the nuclear pores and then join in the cytoplasm to make a ribosome. Ribosomes are either bound or free in the cytoplasm. Free ribosomes in the cytoplasm make proteins that function in the cytoplasm. Bound ribosomes are bound to the nuclear envelope or the rough endoplasmic reticulum, where they make proteins that are later packaged into vesicles . The endoplasmic reticulum is made up of cisternae, cisternae consists of connected flattened sacs and tubules. The inside of the endoplasmic reticulum is called the endoplasmic

Now, what does it do you may be asking? These tiny things provide a lot for many unicellular eukaryotes. The main function of both of these organelles is movement which is powered by ATP. Cilia beat in unison on the outside of the cell in a whip like motion. Flagella have a rotational movement which makes them also act as whips to allow cells to swim through fluids. Cilia allows the cells to move through water, being locomotor appendages. Also, when the cilia is a part of a cell that is bound to one place, they will aid in the movement of water over itself. Other than movement, cilia and flagella act as sensory organelles, receiving information from outside the, like different chemicals and temperature, and informing the cell about what

I predicted that the unknown is a human cell because it has a rounder structure. Even Though the shape of the cell rigid and keeps it in a specific shape. it is more likely to be a animal cell than plant cell because it doesn't have a cell wall. Since there’s two different examples of plant cells than there has to be two examples of animal

Although animal cells and plant cells are both eukaryotes, they possess many differences in shape, size, and structure. In this lab, our group investigated the question: Do plant cells always tend to be larger in size compared to animal cells? We did this lab in order to learn more about the differences between plant and animal cells by observing their physical properties. It was hypothesized that if we compare human blood cells to onion root cells, then we will observe that the plant cells are larger because plant cells have cell walls and larger vacuoles that cause them to be greater in size. We tested this by observing human blood cells and onion root cells under a microscope and noting their physical properties like size, then comparing the results of the two

In regards to their basic structure, according to the SEER Training website, “cells consist of three parts: the cell membrane, the nucleus, and, between the two, the cytoplasm.” (Training.seer.cancer.gov, 2017) This is true for animal cells however plant cells contain a fourth part which is known as the cell wall, it is located on the outside of the cell membrane and allows the cell to keep its rigid shape. It should also be known that there are types of cells that do not contain a nucleus, these are called prokaryotic cells and generally still have the same characteristics as cells that do have a nucleus which are known as eukaryotic cells. (Study.com, 2017) As seen in Figure 1 cells also contain organelles which keep the cell alive and allow it to function effectively.The cytoplasm of the cell which resides between the cell membrane and the nucleus is a gel-like liquid filling the inside of the cell. The cytoplasm allows the cell to have shape and allows the cell 's organelles to move around the cell as needed and function correctly. The nucleus is widely considered to be the control center or
