Plant Cell vs Animal Cell     Abby Marshall

Main Ideas: 

- Plant cells have a cell wall

- Animal cells have centrioles

- Animal cells have lysosomes
- Plant cells contain plastids
- Plant cells are rectangular and animal shapes are rounded

Detailed

Plant cells differ in many ways from animal cells, although they do share many organelles.  Plant cells and animal cells often have different functions. Plant cells must go through the process of photosynthesis. Plant cells have to produce chlorophyll and contain chloroplast while animal cells get their food from other sources. Animal cells are much smaller in size than plant cells are. Plant cells contain starch while animal cells contain glycogen. Animal cells are much more likely to burst in hypotonic solutions than animal cells.

Reflection: I have learned that plant cells and animal cells have many differences but they are both extremely important. They have organelles in common and ones that are different. They have get their food from different sources.
