    This document compares and contrasts the organelles and structures found in animal and plant cells. It lists the key organelles common to both cell types, such as the nucleus, mitochondria, endoplasmic reticulum, Golgi complex, and ribosomes. It notes that chloroplasts are found only in plant cells, where they perform photosynthesis. Other differences highlighted include the presence of a cell wall and vacuoles in plant cells, and plasmodesmata that connect plant cells.

    Organelles are compartmentalised structures that serve specific purposes Animal Cells Plant Cells

    Examples of eukaryotic organelles include: ︎No chloroplast Have chloroplast


    •  80S ribosomes – Responsible for protein synthesis (translation)
    •  Nucleus – Stores genetic information (site of transcription) No cell wall Cell wall (cellulose)
    •  Mitochondria – Site of aerobic respiration (ATP production)
    •  Endoplasmic reticulum – Transports materials between organelles No plasmodesmata Plasmodesmata
    •  Golgi complex – Sorts, stores, modifies & exports secretory products
    •  Centrosomes – Involved in cell division (mitosis and meiosis) Temporary vacuoles Large central vacuole

    Organelles found only in specific cell types include: Cholesterol present No cholesterol in
    •  Chloroplasts – Site of photosynthesis (plant cells only) in the cell membrane the cell membrane
    •  Lysosomes – Breakdown of macromolecules (animal cells)
    Glucose → glycogen Glucose → starch
