What Are the Differences Between Animal and Plant Cells? Read the article then answer the questions. Sort the terms to the correct category (plant, animal, or both). Plant Chloroplast Cell Wall Large Vacuole Rectangular Shape Animal Spherical Shape Many Small Vacuoles Both Mitochondria Nucleus Cell Membrane Cytoplasm Cells Cells - Parts of the Cell Rap Animal Cell Click on the blue dots to see what each organelle looks like in the plant and animal cells. cytoplasm smooth ER nucleus rough ER lysosome golgi apparatus centrioles ribosomes cell membrane mitochondria Plant Cell smooth ER vacuole cytoplasm cell membrame chloroplasts golgi apparatus mitochondria rough ER nucleus cell wall Cell Organelles - Match that Organelle Mitochondria I am the powerhouse of the cell. I am responsible for generating the cell’s energy. Cell Membrane I keep the cell together and give it its shape. Some substances, such as water and oxygen, can pass through me but other substances cannot. I control what enters and leaves the cell. Cytoplasm I am the jelly-like substance inside the cell. I contain many important substances that are needed for chemical reactions. Nucleus I am the control centre of the cell. I contain DNA in the form of chromosomes and control what the cell does and when. Chloroplasts I am oval in shape and am home to a green substance called chlorophyll. I help trap sunlight to make food for my boss. While I am exclusive to plants, you will not find me in all plant cells. Vacuole I store water and dissolved substances within my walls. I am present in both animal and plant cells, however I’m much large in the latter. Cell Wall I am the tough covering around plant cells . I give them strength and hold them in shape. I am made of a substance called cellulose. Water and dissolved substances can pass through me. You will not find me in an Animal cell.
