Plant Cell Structures and Functions

This video tutorial from Free Science Lessons covers the structure and function of plant cells. It begins by outlining the learning objectives, which include labeling a plant cell diagram and describing the functions of its parts. The video compares plant cells to animal cells, highlighting their unique ability to perform photosynthesis. It then details the structures common to both cell types, such as the nucleus and mitochondria, and those unique to plant cells, like chloroplasts, cell walls, and vacuoles. The tutorial concludes with a reminder of additional resources available for further study.
