Plants cells - eukaryotic cells or cells with membrane bound nucleus. are generally larger than plant cells and mostly similar in size and are rectangular or cube shaped
Cell wall - outermost covering of the plant cell
Cell membrane (plasma membrane) - outer lining of the cell inside the cell wall
Cytosol or cytoplasm - gel-like matrix inside the cell membrane which constitutes all other cell organelles
Nucleus - control center of the cell. it is a membrane bound structure which contains the hereditary material of the cell - DNA
Chloroplast - plastid with green pigment chlorophyll that traps light energy and converts it into chemical energy by photosynthesis
Mitochondria - carry out cellular respiration and provide energy to the cells
Vacuoles - temporary storage center of the cell
Golgi body - unit where proteins are sorted and packed
Ribosomes - structures that assemble proteins
Endoplasmic reticulum - membrane-covered organelle that transports cell materials
Peptidoglycan - composed of amino acids and sugars. it provides structure and protection to the cell wall against bacteria
Chitin - serves as the cell's structural support against fungi
Root hairs - extension of the cell. a hair-forming cell on the epidermis of a plant root
Stroma - found inside of the chloroplast. it is a colorless fluid surrounded by grana
Thylakoids - flattened sacs inside a chloroplast bounded by pigmented membranes on which the light reactions of photosynthesis take place
Chlorophyll - green pigment responsible for capturing light energy during photosynthesis
