25. A student observed a cell under a microscope. She wanted to determine what type of cell she was observing. She drew a diagram of the cell and labeled the parts. Below is her drawing.

What type of cell was she most likely observing and what evidence supports this claim?
O A plant cell because it has a cell wall.
A fungal cell because it has a vacuole.
O A plant cell because it has a vacuole.
O A fungal cell because it has no chloroplasts.

A Comparison of Cells Commonly Seen in Lab

Bacteria: prokaryotic. Very small. No nucleus, no chloroplasts, no mitochondria. Do have a cell wall.

Plant cells: eukaryotic. Relatively large. Have a nucleus, have mitochondria, sometimes have chloroplasts. Have a large central vacuole and a cell wall.

Animal cells: eukaryotic. Relatively large. Have a nucleus and mitochondria. Never have chloroplasts. Lack a cell wall, and have no central vacuole.

This Elodea leaf cell exemplifies a typical plant cell. It has a nucleus, and a stiff cell wall which gives the cell its box-like shape. The numerous green chloroplasts allow the cell to make its own food (by photosynthesis).

The central vacuole takes up most of the volume of the cell. It is transparent, but you can see where it's pressing the chloroplasts up against the cell wall, especially at the ends of the cell.

Like animal cells, the cytoplasm of this plant cell is bordered by a cell membrane. The membrane is so thin and transparent that you can't see it, but it is pressed against the inside of the cell wall.

This cell was alive and at 1000x magnification when it was photographed.

cells spend most of their time in interphase

maybe because its impossible for balloons to lift a whole entire house.
