the smallest cell we've discovered
Morgan is studying the differences between plant and animal cells. She learns that certain organelles are unique to plant cells. Which of the following identifies an organelle found only in plant cells, and explains its function?
Plant cells contain chloroplasts because they conduct photosynthesis.
Plant cells contain mitochondria because they produce their own energy.
Plant cells contain cell membranes because they need structural support.
Plant cells contain cytoplasm because they need to conduct respiration.
Maya and Ethan are studying cell biology. Which of the following groups contains organelles that work together to provide energy for the cell?

Chloroplast, Cell Wall
What is the difference between a cell membrane and a cell wall?
the cell membrane stores information
the cell wall is rigid
the cell membrane produces energy
the cell wall recycles waste
Which of the following organisms is capable of producing its own food through photosynthesis?
