Will fan and medal!!!! Both plant and animal cells have _________, which convert fuel to a form of energy the cell can use. Word Bank: endomembrane system flagella central vacuole cilia cytoskeleton ribosomes

MsBrains (ms-brains):

I'm not really sure, sorry.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Isn't there any missing word above???

If there was an option with mitochondria I would have chosen it , however if it was not there ribosomes seems the most appropriate one.

OpenStudy (aveline):

I agree with hinamori. Mitochondria would make the most sense if it were an option.

OpenStudy (fluttershyk):

Animal and plant cells are very similar and can actually be difficult to tell apart under a microscope. They both have: •nucleus (which contains chromosomes/DNA) •nuclear envelope (separating the chromosomes/DNA from cytoplasm) •mitochondrion (holds enzymes for energy) •cytoplasm (gel-like substance in cell) •plasma membrane (holds it all together like a bag) •The endoplasmic reticulum (stores/transports proteins made by ribosomes) •ribosomes (protein production) •microfilaments (form the cytoskeleton) •Golgi complex (transform proteins into different molecules) •lysosomes (contain enzymes to break down chemicals/nutrients) The two differences are:•plants have chloroplasts that give their leaves the green color, which are used for photosynthesis (convert light to energy) •plant cells have a thick outer layer called a cell wall (made of cellulose) that animal cells do not have.
