sugars
A cell that contains a cell wall, chloroplasts and a central vacuole is a ???
plant cell
a central vacuole forms from what?
the fusion of smaller vacuoles
Thylakoids are located where?
inside the inner membrane of a chloroplast
How are secondary cell walls different from primary cell walls?
Primary cell walls are assembled on the surface of the plasma membrane while the cell is growing. They can grow as the cell grows. Secondary cell walls are produced after the cell walls cannot expand.
What are plant cells walls made of?
cellulose embedded in proteins and carbohydrates.
What is the function of cell walls?
Cell walls help support and protect the plant.
What is the appearance of a plant cell when water is plentiful?
