Comparing and Contrasting Eukaryotic, Prokaryotic, and Plant Cells

The video tutorial compares the structures of eukaryotic and prokaryotic cells. Eukaryotic cells, found in animals and plants, have a nucleus and organelles like mitochondria and ribosomes. Plant cells have additional structures such as a cell wall, chloroplasts, and a permanent vacuole. Prokaryotic cells, like bacteria, lack a nucleus, and their genetic material is in the cytoplasm. They have a cell membrane, cell wall, and ribosomes, but no mitochondria. Some bacteria have flagella for movement.

What are the main internal structures found in all animal cells?

What is the role of mitochondria in animal cells?

How do plant cells differ from animal cells in terms of structure?

Describe the function of chloroplasts in plant cells.
