Answer

Brief Explanations:

  1. Plant cell organelles have distinct functions. The cell - wall, cell - membrane, nucleus, chloroplasts, mitochondria, vacuole, etc. are key organelles. Chloroplasts are for photosynthesis, the cell - wall and cytoskeleton support the cell, vacuoles store substances, and mitochondria are for energy production.
  2. Animal cells have centrioles which are not in plant cells. Plant cells have a cell - wall, large central vacuole, and chloroplasts that are not in animal cells.
  3. A. Chloroplasts convert sunlight to chemical energy. B. The cell - wall, cytoskeleton support the plant cell and help it maintain its shape. C. Vacuoles store food or pigments. D. Mitochondria convert food into energy and are in both plant and animal cells.

Answer:

  1. (Requires labeling the diagram with organelles like cell - wall, cell - membrane, nucleus, chloroplasts, mitochondria, vacuole, etc. based on their appearance in the diagram)
  2. Structures in animal cell but not plant cell: Centrioles. Structures in plant cell but not animal cell: Cell - wall, Large central vacuole, Chloroplasts.
  3. A. Chloroplasts B. Cell - wall, Cytoskeleton C. Vacuoles D. Mitochondria
