Why are vacuoles in plant cells many times larger than vacuoles in animal cells?

• plant cells need to store more water for the periods

  when water is not available. They can’t go get a drink

  of water

• animal cells need to store more water for the periods

  when water is not available. They can’t go get a drink

  of water

• animal cells do not need water to function

• plant cells are bigger than animal cells, so they are able to have a larger vacuole

Potato cells usually do not contain chloroplasts. If you examined a potato cell under a microscope, how could you tell that it was a plant cell?

• Under the microscope, potato cells have a cell wall and a

  large vacuole for storing water.

• Under the microscope, potato cells have a nucleus and a

  Golgi body.

• Under the microscope, potato cells have mitochondria and ribosomes.

• Under the microscope, potato cells have a cell membrane and rough E.R.

Scientists have recently discovered a species of sea slug that “steals” the genes for photosynthesis from the algae that it eats and integrates the algae’s chloroplast into its own cells. What can the sea slug now do that most animals cannot?

• make its own food

• swim really fast

• produce leaves and roots

• survive in fresh water
