Mitochondria and Vacuole
By: Chase Mccottry,Walker
Chavatel,Kyle Bollinger
What does it look Like?
• The vacuole looks like a large bag or sac inside of a
cell.
• The mitochondria is an oval shaped energy
generator that lives in an organisms cells.
What kind of Cells?
• The vacuole is found in both plant and animal
cells. Fun fact: In the plant cell the vacuole is
larger than it is in the animal cell.
• The mitochondria is also found in both plant
and animal cells.
Vacuole in plant cell
Where is the Organelle Located?
• The vacuole is located inside of the cell wall
and membrane in the cytoplasm. There is no
specific place where a vacuole is located but it
always inside of the cell wall and membrane.
• The mitochondria is located in the cells
cytoplasm, outside of the nucleus.
What does the cell do?
• The vacuole stores water, food and waste the
cell does not need. Usually the vacuole is a sac
like structure good for storing products. The
vacuole also maintains ph within the cell.
• The mitochondria breaks down food and
converts it to energy for the cells use.
What role?
• The vacuole would be a freezer or a
lunchroom because it stores the food and
waits until the cell needs it.
• The mitochondria would be the electric source
or generator due to the fact it converts food
into energy.
