Mar 31, 2021 · Plant and animal cells both contain organelles, many of which are found in both types of cells. However, there are some organelles (such as chloroplasts, the cell wall, and large vacuoles) that are only found in plant cells. Plant and animal cells contain subcellular structures called organelles.

- From what i searched i didn't see any organism that does but there is something called Euglena and it is found in brackish water habitats.
- Yes, humans (and all organisms with mitochondria) need them to survive. They break down sugars, giving our cells the energy they need to function.
- Actually, you are partially wrong. Plant cells do indeed have chloroplasts while animal cells do not, but both types of cells have mitochondria. An...
- Great question, from logic and what I looked up, yes! It is breaking the cell walls. It makes it easier to eat and digest.
- me neither:(
- The chloroplast creates food for plants (sugars), and the mitochondria breaks them down for energy.
- It's probably being melted because of the heat for question 1
- Red blood cells carry O2 and waste, white blood cells are your second line of defense against pathogens.
- As human skin needs water and food to keep the cells in shape, the plant cells need sunlight to make their energy and sugar. Human cells do not mak...

Apr 27, 2017 · Cytoplasm refers to the fluid that fills the cell, which includes the cytosol along with filaments, proteins, ions and macromolecular structures as well as the organelles suspended in the cytosol. In eukaryotic cells, cytoplasm refers to the contents of the cell with the exception of the nucleus.
Jun 24, 2021 · Parts. The three major componentsof the cytoplasm of a eukaryotic cell are described below: Cytosol: Also known as cytoplasmic matrix, it is gelatinous fluid, where other components of the cytoplasm remain suspended. The cytosol mainly consists of cytoskeleton filaments, organic molecules, salt, and water.
Structure and function of the plasma membrane and cytoplasm of cells. Also covers the phospholipid bilayer and microvilli.
- Nice question! A membrane is not a rigid structure. It is fluid and is able to move which actually gives it more stability. As an analogy, think of...

- Partially. The ion ratios are usually the same (except for sarcoplasmic reticulum which stores Ca and results in high concentrations of Ca inside)....
- Cytosol is the specific liquid within the cytoplasm. Cytosol is a component of the cytoplasm like lysozymes and cellular structures are part of the...

- The cell membrane is composed of 3 types of lipids. One of the chemicals which make up phospholipid heads is alcohol glycerol. That glycerol is so...
- _Good question_ If a cell has to absorb molecules - than having a large surface and external protrusions such as microvilli. If it has to do endocy...
Oct 31, 2023 · Cytoplasm. The cell’s plasma membrane also helps contain the cell’s cytoplasm, which provides a gel-like environment for the cell’s organelles. The cytoplasm is the location for most cellular processes, including metabolism, protein folding, and internal transportation.
If the DNA within a cell is not separated from the cytoplasm, then that cell is a prokaryote. All known prokaryotes, such as bacteria and archaea , are single cells.
