Plant cells

Plants comprise of many cells. This means that they are multicellular organisms. Plant cells also contain nuclei, which means that they are eukaryotic organisms.

The different parts of the plant cell have different functions:
  • The cell wall supports the cell.
  • The cell membrane regulates the intake and removal of substances.
  • The cytoplasm is a liquid that fills the cell. 
  • The cell can store water in its vacuole.
  • The nucleus is the "brain" of the cell. It contains the chromosomes.
  • Chloroplasts are the organelles where photosynthesis takes place.
