Cell Theory B | The cell is the functional unit of life |
Animal cells have: | Cell membrane, mitochondrion, nucleus, cytoplasm |
Plant cells have: | vacuole, nucleus, chloroplast, cell wall |
Plant cell boundaries are composed primarily of | Cellulose |
A cell membrane is said to be | Selectively Permeable |
