Animal and Plant Cell Structures

Activity
Objectives:
 Identify the major parts of a cell and describe their functions.
 Identify the differences between animal and plant cells. 
Use section 3.3 of your OpenStax, Concepts of Biology textbook to complete this activity.

1. List the three structures present in a plant cell that are not present in an animal cell.

a.

b.

c.

2. List two structures present in animal cells that are not present in plant cells.

a.

b.

3. Identify which central cell structure [nuclear envelope, nucleolus, nucleus] is described by each
statement below:

a. the membrane that separates the DNA from the cytoplasm

b. the site of ribosomal RNA

c. the name of the organelle that contains the cell’s DNA

4. Identify which cell structure [centrioles, Golgi apparatus, lysosome, mitochondria, peroxisome,
ribosomes, rough ER, smooth ER, chloroplast] is described by each statement below:
a. the site of ATP synthesis in the cell

b. the organelle that modifies and packages proteins and lipids

c. These are both freely floating in the cytoplasm and attached to the rough ER; they make
proteins

d. the large organelle that makes proteins & sends them to the Golgi apparatus

e. the site of free radical neutralization & detoxification

f. the site of intracellular digestion by digestive enzymes (animal cells)

g. the site of lipid & steroid synthesis and lipid metabolism

h. these are the small organelles that divide a cell’s genetic information during mitosis (animal
cells)

i. the organelle responsible for photosynthesis (plant cells)

5. Identify which external cell structure [cilia, flagella, plasma membrane] is described by each statement
below:

a. the structure used to propel substances across the cell

b. the structure that separates the inside & outside of a cell

c. the structure used to propel a cell during movement

6. Sketch an animal and plant cell and include the following cell structures:
 Nucleus
 Nucleolus
 Centrioles (Animal only)
 Lysosome (Animal only)
 Golgi apparatus
 Mitochondria
 Plasma membrane
 Ribosomes
 Rough endoplasmic reticulum
 Smooth endoplasmic reticulum
 Plasma membrane
 Cytoplasm
 Cell Wall (Plant only)
 Central Vacuole (Plant only)
 Chloroplasts (Plant only)
