CELL STRUCTURE & FUNCTION
Preparing microscope slides of animal and plant cells.

Identify the structures of animal and plant cells based on

observations through a light microscope.
Analyse the components of animal and plant cells as seen on
micrographs
State the main functions of components of animal and plant
cells as seen on micrographs.

Compare and contrast components of animal and plant cells.

Rough endoplasmic reticulum has ribosomes attached it
whereas smooth endoplasmic reticulum does not have any
ribosomes attached to it.
Light microscope usually has a magnification of 1000x. On the
other hand, the electron microscope is able to magnify a cell as
much as 2000000x. Without an electron microscope, cell
structures cannot be seen clearly because the light microscopes
can only observe certain cell components, such as cell
membrane, cell wall, nucleus, cytoplasm, and chloroplast only.
Onion cell because onions grow in the
ground. Onions obtain food from their
storage organs which are onion bulbs.
