Show Answer Key & Explanations Step-by-step solution for: Comparing Animal and Plants Cells - Labeling
The task is to label the different organelles in a plant cell and an animal cell. Below is the solution with explanations for each labeled part:

Animal Cell (Left)


1. 1 - Flagella: Long, whip-like structures used for movement in some cells.
2. 3 - Nucleus: The control center of the cell, containing DNA.
3. 4 - Nuclear Envelope: The membrane surrounding the nucleus.
4. 5 - Ribosomes: Small structures where protein synthesis occurs.
5. 6 - Endoplasmic Reticulum (ER): A network of membranes involved in protein and lipid synthesis.
6. 7 - Golgi Apparatus: Modifies, sorts, and packages proteins and lipids for secretion or use within the cell.
7. 8 - Mitochondria: The powerhouse of the cell, responsible for energy production (ATP).
8. 9 - Lysosomes: Contain digestive enzymes to break down waste materials and cellular debris.
9. 10 - Centrioles: Involved in cell division (mitosis).
10. 12 - Cytoskeleton: Provides structural support and aids in intracellular transport.

Plant Cell (Right)


1. 2 - Cell Wall: A rigid layer outside the cell membrane, providing structural support and protection.
2. 4 - Nucleus: The control center of the cell, containing DNA.
3. 5 - Ribosomes: Small structures where protein synthesis occurs.
4. 6 - Endoplasmic Reticulum (ER): A network of membranes involved in protein and lipid synthesis.
5. 7 - Golgi Apparatus: Modifies, sorts, and packages proteins and lipids for secretion or use within the cell.
6. 8 - Mitochondria: The powerhouse of the cell, responsible for energy production (ATP).
7. 9 - Vacuole: A large storage organelle that holds water, nutrients, and waste products.
8. 11 - Chloroplasts: Organelles where photosynthesis occurs, converting light energy into chemical energy.
9. 12 - Cytoskeleton: Provides structural support and aids in intracellular transport.

Key Differences Between Plant and Animal Cells


- Plant Cells have a cell wall, chloroplasts, and a large central vacuole.
- Animal Cells lack a cell wall and chloroplasts but may have centrioles and flagella in certain types of cells.

Final Answer


1. Flagella
2. Cell Wall
3. Nucleus
4. Nuclear Envelope
5. Ribosomes
6. Endoplasmic Reticulum (ER)
7. Golgi Apparatus
8. Mitochondria
9. Lysosomes
10. Centrioles
11. Chloroplasts
12. Cytoskeleton

$$
\boxed{
\begin{array}{ll}
1. & \text{Flagella} \\
2. & \text{Cell Wall} \\
3. & \text{Nucleus} \\
