  1. What are the structures found in eukaryotic animal and plant cells?

  2. Structures of the Animal Cell

  3. Animal Cells • No definite shape • Cell membrane (no cell wall) • No chloroplasts • animals eat other organisms for energy, therefore their cells do not need to make their own food • Many small vacuoles

  4. Structures of the Plant Cell

  5. Plant Cells • Rectangular shape • Cell membrane and cell wall • Cell wall gives shape and structure • Chloroplasts • Captures sun’s energy to create chemical energy (photosynthesis) • Large vacuole • Storage for water

  6. So what are the differences between plant and animal cells? • Cell shape • Plant cells have a rectangular shape and animal cells have an irregular shape. • This is because plant cells have a cell wall and animal cells do not. • Plant cells have chloroplasts and animal cells do not. • This is because plants need to make their own food through photosynthesis and animals do not. • Plant cells have one large vacuole and animal cells have many smaller vacuoles.
