- The mitochondria is the powerhouse of the cell where energy is produced.
- The outer boundary of a plant cell is called the cell wall.
- Chloroplasts are found in plant cells and help in photosynthesis.
- The nucleus is the central centre of the cell, containing genetic material.
- Vacuoles are storage sacs in a cell that store water and other nutrients.

- Plant cells have a cell wall, chloroplasts, and a large central vacuole, while animal cells do not. These differences are important because they allow plant cells to maintain structure, produce their own food, and store water, which are essential for their stationary lifestyle.
- The organelle is the chloroplast. Its role is to capture sunlight and convert it into chemical energy (glucose) through photosynthesis, providing food for the plant.
