They all have brains
They are all made up of at least 100 cells
What does the nucleus do?
Holds DNA, controls cell
Makes proteins
Makes sugar
Makes energy
Why do plants have a cell wall, but not animal cells?
no reason, totally random but cool!
The cell wall does photosynthesis
Plant cells have to hold a lot more water while not bursting
cell wall holds DNA for the plant

They make energy from sugar we eat
They make muscles
