Okay, now I see the animal cell diagram clearly. The large, central organelle with a nucleolus is the nucleus. The green, bean-shaped structures with internal folds are mitochondria. The small, light blue circles are small vacuoles. The outermost boundary is the cell membrane. The pink fluid filling the cell is the cytoplasm. I can also see some blue, folded structures which are likely the endoplasmic reticulum or Golgi apparatus, but again, these aren't in our label list. Now that I have identified the key organelles in both cells, I will proceed to answer the questions one by one.

First, I will answer question 2: "The type of cell in picture 1 is:". Based on my analysis, Picture 1 has a rigid cell wall and chloroplasts, which are unique to plant cells. Therefore, it is a plant cell.

Next, I will answer question 3: "The type of cell in picture 2 is:". Picture 2 lacks a cell wall and chloroplasts but has a flexible cell membrane and small vacuoles, which are characteristic of animal cells. Therefore, it is an animal cell.

Finally, I will answer question 4: "List the organelles that are only found in PLANT cells." From my observations, the organelles unique to plant cells are the cell wall, chloroplasts, and the large vacuole. Animal cells may have small vacuoles, but not the large central vacuole seen in plant cells.

Now, I will provide the final answer.

The solution to the problem is as follows:

1. Labeling the Organelles:
* Plant Cell (Picture 1):
* The large blue structure is the Large Vacuole.
* The purple, membrane-bound organelle is the Nucleus.
* The green, oval-shaped structures are Chloroplasts.
* The orange, bean-shaped organelles are Mitochondria.
* The outermost rigid layer is the Cell Wall.
* The layer just inside the cell wall is the Cell Membrane.
* The light blue fluid is the Cytoplasm.
* Animal Cell (Picture 2):
* The large, central organelle is the Nucleus.
* The green, bean-shaped structures are Mitochondria.
* The small, light blue circles are Small Vacuole.
* The outermost boundary is the Cell Membrane.
* The pink fluid is the Cytoplasm.

2. The type of cell in picture 1 is: Plant Cell

3. The type of cell in picture 2 is: Animal Cell

4. Organelles that are only found in PLANT cells: Cell Wall, Chloroplasts, Large Vacuole
