The rough endoplasmic reticulum is known for the that adhere to it and help to produce proteins.
Cellular DNA is stored in the , an organelle that also acts as the brain of the cell and directs all cellular activity.
The kingdom, one of the six kingdoms of life, is known for its ability to survive in extreme environments.
The plasma membrane found in both prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells is composed of a/an , which is semipermeable and controls the flow of molecules into and out of the cell.
Whereas lysosomes are primarily involved with the breakdown of proteins and polysaccharides, are involved in lipid and fat breakdown.
Respond to the following based on your reading.

Write a paragraph describing the primary differences between plant and animal cells. Be sure to include a discussion of the various organelles specific to each cell and how they differ between plant and animal cells.
Match the term on the left with its definition on the right.

Term Definition
8. Nucleus a. The structure involved in water retention and storage of nutrients and waste; most prominent in plant cells
9. Vacuole b. The organelle primarily responsible for early stage protein production that’s studded with ribosomes
10. Lysosome c. The organelle primarily responsible for lipid production; can also assist with detoxification functions
11. Peroxisome d. The organelle responsible for transforming sunlight into chemical energy for the cell
12. Cell wall e. The powerhouse of the cell, this organelle is involved in energy production.
13. Peptidoglycan f. The structural layer surrounding the outside of certain cells that helps provide support and protection for internal cell structures
14. Mitochondria g. The director of cellular activities, this organelle acts as the brain of the cell.
15. Chloroplast h. The organelle primarily responsible for lipid breakdown
16. Golgi bodies i. The organelle primarily responsible for protein, polysaccharide, and nucleic acid breakdown
17. Smooth endoplasmic reticulum j. The organelle that assists with early protein production and performs a packaging function for cellular products

1. Organelle

2. Ribosomes

3. Nucleus

5. Cell membrane

Dont know the answer to 4 and 6

DIFFERENCES:

1.Plant cells have cell wall as the outermost boundry whereas animal cells do not have cell wall.

2.Plant cells have cell membrane inside cell wall whereas animal cells have cell membrane as the outermost membrane(plasma membrane)

3.In plant mature plant cells due to formation of large central vacuole nucleus is pushed to the side whereas in animal cells nucleus is present in the centre

4.Plant cells also contain plastids which are membrane bounded organelles whereas animal cells do not contain plastids

5.Plant cells do have centrioles whereas animal cells have two centrioles located near the exterioe surface of nucleus

6.In mature plant cells vacuole absorbs water and fuse to form a single large vacuole whereas in animal cells small vacuole is present near nucleus

7.Plant cells have two major categories of tissues i.e simple tissues and compund tissues whereas animal cells have four major categories of tissues i.e epithelial tissue,connective tissue,muscle tissue and nervous tissue

the organisms are not adapted to live in some communities or habitats.

lizards have adapted to life in the desert. some desert lizards have toes with spiny scales to them run across the sand without sinking. some use the sand to hide from predators, or to search for small animals that they prey upon.
