The Plant Cell

Organelles
Plant Cells
• A plant is made up of
many cells that have
special
characteristics that
make them rigid
(stiff) and able to
make their own food.

Chloroplast
Green!
The chloroplast has pancake stacks
that capture the sunlight and turn it
into sugar… PHOTOSYNTHESIS!!!
Chlorophyll
This is the pigment chlorophyll that helps the plant
capture the sunlight.
Chromatography
When you did the
chromatography of
the plant, color seen
at the end were all
the chlorophylls ( )
that were released
when the leaf
(lettuce or spinach)
was destroyed.

What kind of cells do we have?
• If we were made of
plant cells, our body
would probably move
like our friend
Treebeard!
• Our cells lack a cell
wall, so they are not
stiff and rigid.
