Cut-away illustration of a plant cell. The features that distinguish a plant cell from an animal cell are the cell wall (yellow) and the chloroplasts (green ovoids). The large central vacuole (liquid and gas-filled space, blue) also contrasts with the many small vacuoles of an animal cell. Chloroplasts contain a pigment, chlorophyll, which is used in photosynthesis. The nucleus (pink) is found in plant and animal cells, as are the energy-producing mitochondria (yellow rods) and the Golgi body (red), which modifies and packages proteins. | |
