Plant cells have several structures not found in other eukaryotes. In particular, organelles called chloroplasts allow plants to capture the energy of the Sun in energy-rich molecules; cell walls ...

Mitochondria and chloroplasts likely evolved from engulfed ... Plant Cells, Chloroplasts, and Cell Walls Plant cells have some specialized properties that make them distinct from animal cells.

Like animal cells, basic plant cells have a nucleus, a cell membrane and cytoplasm. They've also got a vacuole, chloroplasts and a cell wall, which are only found in plant cells and they can be a ...
