  • Permanent Vacuole
    It is a fluid-filled sac that stores water.
    It is enclosed in a membrane (a wall that substances can pass through)
    It can make up as much as 90% of a plant cells volume.
  • Chloroplasts
    They contain chlorophyll, which is needed for photosynthesis.
  • Cell wall
    Surrounds the cell and is made of cellulose.
    Cell wall increases the structural strength of the cell.
  • Differentiation
    Can differentiate through their lives
    Plants are always able to create new tissues.
  • Plant cuttings
    If you get a small section of a plant stem and plant it, some cells in the plant stem are able to differentiate to create new root tissue, this allows a whole new plant to grow. You dont see this when you cut off a humans foot.
