For a plant cell, the nucleus, without a doubt, is the most important organelle; but in the animal cell, the most vital structure is the mitochondria.

The nucleus is the control centre of a cell. It contains genetic material such as DNA and controls the cell's growth and

The cytoplasm is the area between the nucleus and the cell membrane. The cytoplasm contains many important structures. This area is basically the main place where you will find structures that help the cells stay alive.

The nucleus is one of the most important parts of any animal or plant cell. It has four really main functions and parts. It holds DNA in chromosomes, includes the nucleolus, controls protein synthesis, and lastly the nuclear membrane. This parts and functions really make up what we know as the nucleus.

Cells are the basic unit of structure and function in living things. If something is not made of cells, it is not alive. There are different types of cells. The two major groupings of cells prokaryotes and eukaryote. The two main types of eukaryotes are plant and animal cells. Plant and animal cells have many similarities but a few important differences. Animal cells all share certain characteristics but vary from there. Plant cells all share certain characteristics but vary from there.

Plant cells are different than animal cells due to the fact that they need to go through photosynthesis. They are also similarly because they both have a golgi bodies/apparatus. Another difference is that plants have a cell wall and animals don’t. Another way their different is that they don’t have all the same cells. For instance animal cells have nucleolus,chromatin,vacuole, and lysosomes. While plant cells only have chloroplasts, cell wall, and lytic vacuole. Another reason they are both similar is that they both almost have all the same cells like the rough and smooth er. The cells that they both have are golgi bodies/apparatus, cytoplasm, cell membrane, nucleus, mitochondria, ribosomes, endoplasmic reticulum, lysosomes,

The cell nucleus acts like the brain of the cell. It control the eating, movement, and reproduction that occurs. If anything happens in any other cell, chances are that the nucleus knows about it. The nucleus is not normally in the middle of the cell. The nucleus looks lie a big dark spot somewhere in the cytoplasm. Very often would you find the nucleus on the edge of a cell as that would be dangerous place for it to be.

Cells are the basic unit of life, every living thing is made up of them (Robson). Cells are the smallest unit of life, they consist of a cytoplasm and a membrane (Wiki). Cells can be unified as either unicellular or multicellular (Wiki). Multicellular cells consist of plant and animal cells, the number of cells in each plant and animals vary from species to species (Wiki). Plant and animal cells have many similarities and differences such as their size, what they are made up of, and their cell walls.

In general both animal cells and plant cells have the similar structures, however they do have some differences.

The nucleus is the organelle that controls the cell’s activity and can be found in both animal and plant cells. It is bound by a

More importantly, the cells differ from body to another depending on which organism it is. As an illustration, cells have two different kinds. First, the Eukaryotes which are in the human, in the animal or in the plant in general, and they are intricacy cells. Furthermore, the Prokaryotes which exists in the bacteria and archaea, also it is simple cells (Minorsky 2009). According to Silverstein clarified that "The term prokaryote means before nucleus; eukaryote means true nucleus" (para. 4). Each kind of cells does its functions as a group in a systematic situation where there is no probability for mistakes, because every single has different structure also every one of them does unique function to the fullest and in perfect way. Indeed, in this paper I would analyze the parts of the cells in animal and bacteria, besides the functions, such as the Nucleus, Cell membrane, Cytoplasm, Lysosomes, Mitochondria, and Ribosomes or Chromosomes.

Organelles are the internal structures of the cell that are important for the cell to survive. Each organelle has a specific function for the cell. The types of organelles in the cell can be different from each other depending on the type of cell. Plant cells and animal cells both have a cytoskeleton, endoplasmic reticulum (smooth and rough), golgi apparatus, mitochondrion, nucleus, plasma membrane, and ribosomes. Animal and plant cells also have vacuoles, but they are rarely found in animal cells. Vacuoles in animal cells are very small compared to the vacuoles in plant cells. Lysosomes are also rarely found in plant cells but mostly found in animal cells.

Nucleus was first described in 1971 by Antoni Van Leeuwenhoek by using easy microscope. In 1831 the Scottish botanist Robert Brown characterized the organelle in details calling it “nucleus” which means little nut. He noticed that what nucleus does is very essential to us. Today many biologists know that brown was right. Nucleus is one of the most important organelle. This organelle has many major functions: it stores cell’s heredity material called DNA, it also makes protein and it coordinates cell’s growth, metabolism, go-between metabolism and reproduction. The nucleus provides functional compartmentalisation inside the cell allowing higher levels of gene regulation.

Animal cells are “eukaryotic cells, or cells with a membrane-bound nucleus (Bailey). This cell contains three cells out seven features. The features that animal cells contains are cell nucleus, mitochondria and ribosomes. Cell nucleus “controls cell activity and contains the genetic material” (Plant, Animal and Bacterial Cells). Mitochondria “provide the cells’ energy requirement” (Plant, Animal and Bacterial Cells). Lastly, the ribosome is “present in plant and animal cells are the larger type of ribosomes but are the smallest and most numerous of the eukaryotic cell organelles (Plant, Animal and Bacterial Cells). Animal cells doesn’t contain a cell wall, plasmids, chloroplasts and permanent vacuole” (Plant, Animal and Bacterial Cells). The size of this cells “range from 10 to 30 micrometers in length (Bailey). The Animal cells tends to “come in various sizes and tend to have round or irregular shapes (Bailey). Lastly, the way that animal cell gets energy is by “the form of the complex carbohydrate glycogen” (Bailey).

The cell is a basic unit of life (Bolsover et al., 2004). It is the basic unit of plants, animals and humans. Cells serve as the building blocks of life for example of
