Every living thing has at least
one cell. A cell is a microscopic organism. A cell is made up of many
different parts. One of the most important parts is the nucleus. The nucleus
is an organelle and in the nucleus is the DNA responsible for providing the
unique characteristics. Another important part of the plant cell is the
mitochondria. The mitochondria is basically the powerhouse of the cell.
It provides the energy a cell needs to move and divide. Another crucial part of
a cell is the cell membrane. EVERY cell is enclosed in a membrane. The
membrane is a double layer of fats but the proteins are important to the cell
activities. Plant cells all have a cell wall. This is the difference between
plant cells and animal cells, having a cell wall.
