Plant cells are eukaryotic cells, meaning they have a nucleus and other membrane-bound organelles. Plant cells have a cell wall made of cellulose that acts as a protective layer and helps them maintain their shape. Plant cells contain chloroplasts, which are the sites of photosynthesis and the production of food for the plant.

Cell Wall: A rigid layer of non-living material outside the cell membrane that gives shape and structure to a plant cell. Chloroplasts: Organelles that contain chlorophyll and are responsible for photosynthesis in plant cells. Cell Membrane: A thin layer of protein and fat that surrounds the cell and controls what enters and leaves the cell.

Plant cells contain a large, central vacuole filled with a watery liquid that helps to maintain turgor pressure and regulates the cell’s internal environment. The cell wall of plant cells are made up of cellulose molecules which are arranged in a network. Plant cells contain photosynthetic organelles called chloroplasts that are involved in the conversion of light energy into chemical energy.
