Plants have relatively few cell types, but their specialized functions and their interactions are essential for physiology, development, and defense. The contributions of individual cells have been distinguished by methods including in situ reporting, cell sampling, and cell separation, thus far mostly ...
What is a plant cell? Learn the components of a plant cell, the parts of a plant cell and their functions, types of plant cells, and a plant cell...
but in reality they have no true leaves or roots. However, their cells are true plant cells. A larger New Zealand species even has lignin in its cell walls besides the normal cellulose. (Lignin is a tougher material that often occurs in the cell walls of more complex plants.) Like the ...
Plant and Animal Cells plants cell animal cell Plant cells contain many of the same organelles as animals cells, however, there are some unique structures that can only be found in either plant or animals cells. These specific structures help differentiate each cell type and help each cell ...
Water conducting cells ofxylemhave a support function in plants. Xylem has a hardening agent in the tissue that makes it rigid and capable of functioning in structural support and transportation. The main function of xylem is to transport water throughout the plant. Two types of narrow, elongate...

Bacteria are microscopic single-cell organisms that are neither plants nor animals. They are simple and ancient organisms; and there is evidence of bacterial life on earth 3.5 billion years ago. Bacteria are characterized by a lack of bound internal str
The moss Physcomitrella patens forms eight types of stem cells during its life cycle and serves as a useful model in which to explore the evolution of such cells. The common ancestor of land plants is inferred to have been haplontic and to have formed stem cells only in the gametophyte ...

The cell is the basic unit of life in all organisms. Like humans and animals, plants are also composed of several cells. The plant cell is surrounded by a cell wall which is involved in providing shape to the plant cell. Apart from the cell wall, there are other organelles that are ass...
