Differentiate between plant tissue and animal tissue

\( \newcommand\) • • • • • • Learning Objectives • Describe the difference between meristematic and non-meristematic tissues. • Compare and contrast dermal, ground, and vascular tissue. Plants are multicellular eukaryotes with tissue systems made of various cell types that carry out specific functions. Plant tissues are composed of cells that are similar and perform a specific function. Together, tissue types combine to form organs. Each organ itself is also specific for a particular function. Plant tissue systems fall into one of two general types: meristematic tissue, and permanent (or non-meristematic) tissue. Cells of the meristematic tissue are found in meristems, which are plant regions of continuous cell division and growth. Meristematic tissue cells are either undifferentiated or incompletely differentiated, and they continue to divide and contribute to the growth of the plant. In contrast, permanent tissue consists of plant cells that are no longer actively dividing. Meristematic tissues consist of three types, based on their location in the plant. Apical meristems contain meristematic tissue located at the tips of stems and roots, which enable a plant to extend in length. Lateral meristems facilitate growth in thickness or girth in a maturing plant. Intercalary meristems occur only in monocots, at the bases of leaf blades and at nodes (the areas where leaves attach to a stem). This tissue enables the monocot leaf blade to increase in length from the leaf base; f...

Plants and animals are made up of millions of cells and these cells have several similarities and differences. Considering that they are both eukaryotic cells, which means they have a true nucleus, that is enclosed and separated from other organelles by a nuclear membrane, is a crucial factor that defines their modes of multiplication. They have similar reproduction processes of mitosis and meiosis, using their DNA that is housed by the What are plant cells and animal cells? They are also both membrane-bound, with several cell organelles in common performing the same if not similar mechanisms to maintain and control the cells’ normal function. These organelles include the nucleus, Golgi bodies, endoplasmic reticulum, ribosomes, mitochondria, cytoskeleton, peroxisomes, and the cell membrane. They also undergo Despite having all these similarities they have several differences as well. Structurally, plant and animal cells are very similar because they are both eukaryotic cells. They both contain membrane-bound organelles such as the nucleus, mitochondria, endoplasmic reticulum, Golgi apparatus, lysosomes, and peroxisomes. Both also contain similar membranes, cytosol, and cytoskeletal elements. The functions of these organelles are extremely similar between the two classes of cells (peroxisomes perform additional complex functions in plant cells having to do with cellular respiration). However, the few differences that exist between plants and animals are very significant and...

However, the few differences that exist between plant and animals are very significant and reflect a difference in the functions of each cell. Plant cells can be larger than animal cells. The normal range for an animal cell varies from 10 to 30 micrometers while that for a plant cell stretches from 10 to 100 micrometers. Beyond size, the main structural differences between plant and animal cells lie in a few additional structures found in plant cells.

Plants and animals are both living things, which means they both contain cells. The cells of plants and animals share some similar traits – they both store DNA – but there are some fundamental differences between them. These differences include structure, protein-creation capabilities and differentiation capabilities. TL;DR (Too Long; Didn't Read) Plants and animal cells differ in several ways. Their structure is different. Plant cells can create proteins on their own; animal cells rely on diet to provide 10 of the essential amino acids. Almost all plant cells can differentiate, or change, into other types of cells within a plant's body. In animals, only stem cells can differentiate. Structural Differences Even though plant and animal cells share some common structures, they also have several important structural differences. Plant cells have a cell wall, which is a rigid protective layer that surrounds the entire cell. Animal cells have cell membranes, which are flexible and permeable. As a result, outside substances can more easily be absorbed into the cell. Plant cells contain tiny organelles – inner structures – known as plastids, which animal cells lack. Plastids contain pigment or food that plants use to create energy. For example, chloroplasts are plastids that contain chlorophyll. Plants use chlorophyll during photosynthesis, the process by which they convert sunlight into usable energy. Protein-Creation Capabilities Proteins are molecules that cells use for a vari...
