Similarities between plant and animal cells practice exercise 1

A student argued that a nucleus is only found in animal cells because plant cells already have chloroplasts. Explain why this statement is incorrect using microscope evidence. (1 mark)

Compare the two diagrams. Name one part found in both cells and explain its function. (1 mark)

During a science lesson, Joyce observed both plant and animal cells under a microscope. She noticed that both had a thin boundary around them and a round structure inside the cell. What are these two parts called, and what do they do? (2 marks)

During an experiment, two cells were viewed under a microscope. Both had a clear boundary, a nucleus, and jelly-like material inside. Explain how these three structures work together to keep the cell alive. (3 marks)

A teacher placed drops of colored water on microscope slides containing plant and animal cells. After some time, the color moved into the cells. Using the diagram below, what does this tell you about the cell membrane, and why is it important in both cells? (2 marks)

A student observes two cells under a microscope slide labeled as Cell A (plant) and Cell B (animal). Both show a central nucleus and surrounding jelly-like fluid. What is the name of the fluid found inside both cells and what is its role? (1 mark)
