Description:
if you study a plant by observing part of it through a microscope, you will see that it is made up of a very large number of tiny 'boxes'. These are called cells All living organisms are made of cells.

Cells are so small that you cannot see them with your eyes alone. The photograph of the plant cells was taken through a microscope. The microscope magnifies the view of the cells, so that they look much bigger than they really are sap vacuole

This is a large, fluid-fitted space inside a plant cell. The liquid inside it is a solution of sugars and other substances dissolved in water. The solution is called cell sap.

caloroplast

Plant cells that are in the sunlight often contain chloroplasts. This is where plants make their food. Chloroplasts look green because they contain a green substance called chlorophyll.

mitochondrion

All plant cells have mitochondria (singular: mitochondrion). Inside mitochondria, energy is released from food.Parts of a the foncribe of cho plant cell

cell wall

Every plant cell has a cell wall. The cell wall is strong and stiff. It holds the plant cell in shape. Plant cell walls are made of a substance called cellulose.

cell membrane

All cells have a cell membrane. The cell membrane is very thin and flexible. It is like the thin skin of a soap bubble. It lies along the inner edge of the cell wall. The cell membrane controls what goes in and out of the cell. 7

cytoplasm

All cells have cytoplasm. Cytoplasm is like clear jelly. Chemical reactions happen inside the cytoplasm. These reactions keep the cell alive. 7

nucleus

Most cells have a nucleus. The nucleus controls the activities of the cell.
